"Play" button enhancement request for Tellico

Here is a simple enhancement request for Tellico...

Circled in red below, please see how GCstar provides a simple button that allows the defined media file to be played by a media player of choice...
play




In the next screenshot, a set of preferences are offered to allow the user to define what media player will play "collection" files of specific types:

player

Tellico seems to be a nice collection manager - - it would be great to take it one step beyond that, to allow a kiosk to actually play collection entries being defined by Tellico.

Thanks

Tellico's a little more flexible. If you have a URL field with a link to the
video file, then you can click it and have whatever movie player is set in
the KDE file associations play it. That works with any type of file, not
just videos. Add a link to PDF files, they'll open in your PDF viewer.
Images, anything...
