Well. i don't see it as a misunderstanding on my behalf.. i didn't made 2 applications to manage preferred applications. Where would you expect it to be if you didn't know about Removable devices and media. I would expect it to be in preferred applications. Now that i know it's not in there i still expect it to be there. The fact that there is a Removable devices and media is fine. but it shouldn't have default application stuff in it! there is clearly another application for that. The Removable devices and media should just have (for video dvd): Checkbox "Run application when video dvd is inserted?" (or something like it) and than preferred applications should take over. In reality this will make Removable devices and media pointless because it has so little options that they can be better placed in preferred applications ^_^
