Bug Description
Binary package hint: vlc
Hello,
PROBLEM:
I did a bug report about Kubuntu (KDE 4.5.1) inability on CIFS auto mounting of SAMBA shares like Nautilus in GNOME does (for more info see the report: https:/
BEST SOLUTION:
Support KIO SLAVES... Or at least let KDE know it don't handle KIO SLAVES to let it auto download the remote file to open it in the local PC...
PS: I don't know if the solution above is the better (alternatively we can make KDE auto mount remote paths with CIFS like Nautilus does in GNOME too) one because it's not a VLC specific problem, it affects also LIBREOFFICE and GNOME MPLAYER... So, if any of you think in a different manner, please, let us know... All of us want LINUX become better and this needs our commitment with it's development and, with that, make it easier to the common user of PC's to handle it...
Thanks for your attention,
André M.

VLC cannot use KIO for HTTP. It needs its own implementation of HTTP for streaming.
VLC supports CIFS via the access_smb plugin (which is included in Ubuntu).
