Negative. I hadn't delved too much into that screen. I just went to
"Player settings" and changed the box that said "Internal" to vlc blah blah.
I thought that was all I had to do.
I just went to the file types menu and it was all there. I changed the
command for iso file types, the checkbox for default player was unchecked
already. It now loads vlc correctly.
Thanks for pointing that out. Though it seems like it's a little
counterintuitive and could be implemented to be more user friendly. I
really do like the idea of having a different player for different file
types though. Though it seems like that should all be placed under "Player
Settings"... Oh well now I know.
Thanks
Brian
