avidemux not in "open with" contextual menu

[guillaume le louet]

very simply : I can't get the "open with" in ubuntu to show the "avidemux-gtk" that is present for .avi files.

Took me like one or more hour, I give up and consider this as a conception bug from either ubuntu or avidemux. Avidemux should be able to asociate itself with file types, and ubuntu should keep the old "add custom command" in the properties of a file, "open with" options, so I could add simply the avidemux to it.

sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/avidemux-gtk.desktop
added %U in the line Exec=avidemux2_gtk
that is
Exec=avidemux2_gtk %U
it worked

PS. Avidemux (GTK+) was see in Open With -> Other Applictions
once i selected it it appeared in Open With
