(Feisty) gThumb tries to show mp3, flv and wma files

[ubu-for]

Every time I double click on a picture file (png or jpg) in a directory with other file typs (pdf, mp3, ...) and scroll through this folder with gThumb by pressing the keys "Page Up"/"Page Down", gThumb shows not only the pictures but also mp3 (shows nothing), flv (shows first videoframe) and wma (shows nothing) files.

I use gThumb 2.10.2 and don't remember any problems with Ubuntu 6.06.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the bug report. I directed to the correct package, although I can not confirm this on Gutsy with gThumb version 3:2.10.6-0ubunt1

Thanks for your report, What you mean with "tries to show" Here it show an icon for that kind of files and if you double click on that, it open totem with the file you clicked, but it doesn't try to "show" the file with gthumb, can you clarify? thanks.

It's not a bug, it's a feature...

gThumb lists any files that are likely to have been imported from a camera, including audio and video files. Doubling-clicking on these files will launch the default audio/video player application.

No, I don't double click on a mp3 file.

Please look at screenshot 01.

It tries to show, because it's impossible to show an audio file like a picture! gThumb is a picture viewer. This can't be a feature, because this bug is absolutely senseless!

Please look at my screenshots!

No, it is not senseless.

However, the trunk version of gThumb has a preference to disable listing of audio and video files.
