Thanks but no...

I do use dbus-switchboard so that files from file manager launch in the app I have associated them with... It works very well too

That is the first part of the process. The next part would be if I could use Personal Menu to point to that particular file as a menu item.

Right now I have Personal Menu item for media player. If I want a particular song , video, play list, or podcast I must first launch MP, then browse to the file using MP's menu, select it, then rock on.

If instead I could use PM to launch the file, MP would launch along with it saving a bunch of steps, savvy?
