URI scheme handlers allows VLC to manifest ability to open these URIs. Practically it means that if user wants to open url like mms://example.com/ system may automatically choose VLC to open it. I haven't included http, ftp, etc. because they are better handled by web browsers than media player. More info about URI scheme handlers are here: http://standards.freedesktop.org/shared-mime-info-spec/shared-mime-info-spec-latest.html#id2869854 Line with MimeType key is now longer than 998 characters (see RFC 2822). I haven't found a way of making it shorter. In case you didn't get whole line it ends with: x-content/audio-player;application/xspf+xml; Signed-off-by: Rémi Denis-Courmont <remi@remlab.net> |

README for the VLC media player
===============================
VLC is a popular libre and open source media player and multimedia engine,
used by a large number of individuals, professionals, companies and
institutions. Using open source technologies and libraries, VLC has been
ported to most computing platforms, including GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OS X,
BSD, iOS and Android.
VLC can play most multimedia files, discs, streams, allows playback from
devices, and is able to convert to or stream in various formats.
The VideoLAN project was started at the university École Centrale Paris who
relicensed VLC under the GPLv2 license in February 2001. Since then, VLC has
been downloaded close to one billion times.
