This has to be 5 year old, stale news...

On Windows XP, I right clicked on my Audio folder, Sharing and Security, Share this folder on the network.

I've done this so I can play music through my Xbox.

Anyway, in File Manager, it also shows on my tablet.

If I click a song, it will even play it.

Finding something new like this always has me in smiles.

So yeah, I also have a shared Video folder as well.

The thing is, there's no way for me to tell Mplayer to open one of the vids.

I get an Unable to recognize the type of file and it asks for me to search for the app to open it with.

When I choose Mplayer, it launches the app but forgets that I wanted to play the video.

Any trick to this?
