Bit of a noob here, but I am using Manjaro with Gnome and when I open a video (mp4 for exemple) I want to open it with MPV, so I set it as the default player for videos, but sometimes I want to encode with Handbreak so I go in “Open With Other Application” and I select Handbreak there.
But now, when I open a video, it opens with Handbreak by default and I have to select MPV in “Open With Other Application” to play the video. Is there any way of preventing the default app to change each time?
Rightclick on the file --> open with --> with another application --> click in the checkbox “Use by default for files of this type.” and choose the program.
If you set the default application for a MIME type, it will always be used for opening this type of file, unless you specify a different application that will be used individually.
