 Posted: Thu Mar 15, 2012 4:21 am Post subject: File associations |
 |
|
Hello,
I'm using TC on a tablet with ICS 4.0.3 and I like it.
The only issue I have is the file associations. Every file which should not have a associated app is linked to a video player. The players are either DICE or BS Player.
Inside the player app only the typical files are associated. When I deinstall the players the files show with plain white 'paper sheet' icon in TC as they should.
Where does TC get the default associations? Or is it a fault of the player apps? Does anybody else see this behavoir?

TC asks the system for the associations, which are defined in the manifest file of the player. I assume that there is a bug in that manifest, making TC think that the player can handle all file types. Which of the mentioned players is causing this?

Thanks for the fast reply.
Infact both of the player cause this. Both are given as an option to open the file. Currently all the files have the symbol of the DICE player. If I deinstall DICE and reboot the icon is now the BS Player one.
edit: I looked at the manifests and they list only the relevant files. Unfortunately I cannot attach a file. If you would like to take a look at the files tell me how I could provide them. |

Can you post the manifest file? Just the <intent-filter> sections would be sufficient. Just put them in
[ code]
[ /code]
blocks (without the space ater the [.

Edit: this is not the complete code. Something in the code triggered the URL posting restriction, so I deleted something.
| Code: | | android.intent.category.LAUNCHER rtmp gopher .*m3u8 .*avi .*asf .*f4v .*flv .*mkv .*mpeg .*mpg .*mov .*mts .*m2ts .*rm .*rmvb .*ts .*vob .*webm .*wmv .*AVI .*ASF .*F4V .*FLV .*MKV .*MPEG .*MPG .*MOV .*MTS .*M2TS .*RM .*RMB .*TS .VOB .*WEBM .*WMV android.intent.action. |

That's the compiled manifest file. Please check the not compiled one. You can use the following tool to decompile Android APK files:
http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
It requires the Java runtime. Just get the package apktool-install-windows-r04-brut1.tar.bz2. Total Commander can unpack it with my .bz2 plugin.

Hello,
I managed to decompile the apk's. Here are the two intent section of the player which cause the misbehavior and for comparison my 3rd video player which does not show this wrong file associations. It's quite some code...
