6547	Allow to play video using default external player	jyavenard@…	Anduin Withers	"Hi

I've configured all known video extensions in my mythtv install to play using the ""Internal"" player. This is very elegant, provides consistency in the UI across mythtv and add extra features like remember the last position etc...

However, there are still plenty of videos that the internal player can't play properly.
As such, there times where I would like to use the default external player (e.g. mplayer) without any fuss and very quickly.
Typically, try playing the video, realising that it won't work I can start mplayer , all using my remote control.

This is what this patch does:
In 0.21-fixes, pressing I (Info):
In trunk (0.22), pressing M (Menu):

Underneath the standard entry ""Watch This Video"" adds a ""Watch This Video (default player)"". Which will start playing the video using the default player"	enhancement	closed	minor	unknown	Plugin - MythVideo	head	medium	duplicate			0
