Package: vlc Version: 1.1.9-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch upstream In its desktop file vlc specifies with 'Exec=vlc %U' that it can open URIs. KDE for some time assumes that only http and ftp are supported by such an application unless the destop file specifies an explicit list of supported protocols. Unfortunately this needs to be specified in a KDE specific manner using X-KDE-Protocols.
As a result of this when I try to play a file from a samba share from KDE Dolphin it first tries to copy the whole video file to a temporary folder before passing it to the VLC. My patch fixes this problem. Please apply it. I have added some more protocols I found that are supported by vlc, but probably there are others too. You can add them if you want.
