Opening mp3 files !!

I have copied some mp3 files in jam. Before it was opening directly with media player whenever I tap on the mp3 file. But now it stops opening those file with media player, and now whenever I click on the file it give this error message:
"There is no application associated with "Filename". Run the application first, then open this file from within the application."
Now everytime I have to open media player first then only I can play the file. What should I do so that whenever I click it should directly open with media player?
Have you installed another player program (GSPlayer, Mort Player etc.) then removed it ?
It sounds like you have, the file association has been lost
YES, I have installed some other player and then removed. From that time I am facing this problem. So how can I resolve this problem?

Open file in media player, rather than trying to open in file explorer and letting it find its own default app.

[Updated] MPlayer for all device (latest svn)

Hi here is the latest MPLAYER for windows mobile it would run on almost all device
Instructions :
Install cab and click on mplayer icon. Use joystick for menu navigation
It support all codecs and you can customize it easily by editing
menu.conf for Menu Items
input.conf for key encodings
codecs.conf for codec related things
Limitation:
1. While playing it is not possible to hide mplayer window [SDL issue]
2. No UNICODE support. Support is not in cegcc so I am not able to do anything right now may be i will modify cegcc later.
In progrss:
1.real file support [90% done]
2.Directx support [50% done , if you want use directx edit config file and replace vo=sdl to vo=directx:noaccel and fs=1]
3.wma support [100% forgot to include in this release will add in next build]
[Note : all config files are in \My Documents\mplayer\ folder]
Log:
1. If you face any problem please send log.txt file from \Storage Card\ folder

Placed everything in the right place and gave it a run. I have a Samsung Omnia with a WinMo 6.1 rom.
I noticed I doesn't seem to suport uniconde. The "Storage Card" drive is called "Cartão de Memória" in my localization and mplayer crashes everytime I tried to launch it... Really hope you fix this one. Also hope you add a simple GUI soon.
Also may I suggest that the file that need to be placed in the "My documents" folder be placed in the same folder as the mplayer.exe instead.
And please release the source.

select media file and open with mplayer if you execute mplayer.exe directly nothing happen
Click to expand...

There You have your answer
I noticed I missed that. I was already editing my post when you replied
Also just tried an FLV1 file from my device memory (from "Cartão de memória didn't work). At first the file wouldn't play but then I used WVGAFIX3 to change my device resolution from WQVGA to QVGA and it worked. Seems like it deslikes wide screens.

attach log.txt , that will give better idea why exectution failed
For the directory name charater issue (Cartão de memória) it just crashes on launch. It was when I tried to launch mplayer directly (before I edited the post). I was however how I found the issue. If I try the "Open with" and the media file is in any dir which characters like those it just wont open...
Also strangelly enough the same video file is no longer crashing in WQVGA resolution?! Only GSFinder+ (my file manager) crashes. I did a reset since that so maybe it was a problem with my device and not mplayer. Still the character issue remains.
Here's the log.txt (media in "Cartão de memória") for when it failed and worked.log when it played (in a different path)

yes it is more likely because of no unicode support right now. I have idea how to support so that will be fixed in next build.
New mplayer download from first post and share your experiance

Streaming Internet radio (URL)

Potential buyer but there is a problem.
Ie there a way to stream a url radio stream to android?
Here are the urls, could someone try & let me know if it works?
URL 1: http://tvradio.ert.gr/radio/liveradio/deytero.asp
URL 2: http://wwk.kathimerini.gr/radio/listen.asx
People say that you can, but I tried it at the store & it wouldn't work. Maybe I'm missing something...
This is the only issue preventing me from moving to the android world...
Thank you,
The Analyst
PS: ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
These are the contents of a .m3u playlist

You can copy each one section between the lines "--------------"to a txt file and rename it with .m3u extension. Then you can try to open it with the browser. If you have streamfurious it should open the streams and you will listen to Greek music.....And then i'll buy the phone!!!!
Thank you for the help
I tried those first two URLs and couldn't play it. Looks like one of the pages requires silverlight and the other just downloaded the asx file instead of playing it. I didn't try using any downloaded player just clicked the link from the browser so there might be a media player that plays them.
thank you for the try
Could you try one more thing?
Or someone else that already has "streamfurious" (its a free app)
1. download the attached "txt" file (had to rename to attach it)
2. delete the .txt extension out of the file name
3. the files are .m3u playlists
4. Copy the attached m3u file to your SD card
5. Open the file with browser.
It should play in streamfurious =>> I will be getting an android phone!!!!
Thank you again
