Telegram typically sends mp4
video files. While macOS plays them natively by default, some Linux distros may need some configuration to play them correctly. Nchat uses xdg-open
to open any attached files under Linux. To get xdg-open
to play mp4 files using mplayer
one can for example use mimeopen
:
mimeopen -d ~/Downloads/myvideo.mp4
Please choose a default application for files of type video/mp4
1) Other...
use application #1
use command: mplayer
(if no mp4 file is available, one can use nchat to download a video message with CTRL-R
)
