Bug#842810: mpv: Add missing MIME types to desktop file?

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Package: mpv
Verison: 0.21.0-2

Hi.

I noticed mpv do not list the same set of MIME types as vlc in its
desktop file.  This causes the graphical file manager in the various
desktops to not suggest mpv to play various audio and video formats when
the user click on a media file.

Here is the list of MIME types present in the vlc desktop file but
missing in the mpv one.  I compare with the vlc desktop file because it
is the player with the most supported MIME types according to
<URL: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/PlayerSupport >.  The
MIME types marked (x) are official MIME types registered with the IANA
MIME registry, and the ones marked (*) are MIME types returned by file
--mime-type.

Please consider adding these MIME types to the mpv.desktop file:

application/vnd.ms-asf (x) 
application/x-quicktimeplayer (x) 
application/xspf+xml (x) 
audio/3gpp (x)

correct?
