Because vlc is now added as both a dvd movie and audio cd player choice for default player a few comments on the default launch command.
Using %U will cause many commercial dvds to fail when vlc is called from dvd insertion. In these cases they have to run from vlc's file -> open disc menu to open. Using %m resolves this Right click on dvd icon -> open with vlc also fails with %U. Using %m resolved in 0.9.2, fails also in 0.9.3 Opening a VIDEO_TS folder on the hdd with right click -> open with vlc will result in no navigation, ie. stuck on the menu if there is one, with %U. This also is resolved by using %m. Both launch commands fail when a VIDEO_TS folder is accessed from vlc ->file -> open directory. (due to vlc jumping past VIDEO_TS.IFO As far a audio cd's Using vlc as default cd player with %U when an audio cd is inserted there is no playback. Using %m will allow playback upon cd insertion with a issue. All cd's with less than 10 tracks will playback perfectly, all with 10 or more will start at track 10. (playlist will be ordered 10 thru end, 1 thru 9. Some of these issues with %U existed in 8.04 also and using %m solved them as here in 8.10.(with all vlc versions I'm wondering why the adherence to a broken launch command (I see no downside to %m side note: creating an alternate .desktop with it's own custom Exec= allows perfect audio cd playback.
