How to set default media player

Post by jomi86 »

Hi! I'm new here... :)
Recently I choose to use Mint as my main linux distro. It works fine so far, but I cannot change my default media player... I want to set VLC as default video and xmms as audio player...

Alternatively, right click on the file (mp3,avi etc) select properties,click the 'opens with' tab then click on the appropriate button.
All files of that type will now open with that player.
