When installing handbrake, this one is used by default in KDE instead of VLC or MPlayer.

I think an video editor should the last in applications list for video mime types.
This task depends upon

There's no priority mechanism for .desktop files. You need to configure file associations in KDE:

InitialPreference=

There is a priority option for desktop files, for exemple, for odt:

- libreoffice => InitialPreference=5

- okular => InitialPreference=2

That's cool and all, but not used in either handbrake, vlc or mplayer.

We won't start assigning InitialPreference values at the distro level, so I don't see this being a solution.

Ok, will try to get this accepted for Mplayer and VLC ;)
