Well. i don't see it as a misunderstanding on my behalf.. i didn't
made 2 applications to manage preferred applications.

Where would you expect it to be if you didn't know about Removable
devices and media. I would expect it to be in preferred applications.
Now that i know it's not in there i still expect it to be there. The
fact that there is a Removable devices and media is fine. but it
shouldn't have default application stuff in it! there is clearly
another application for that. The Removable devices and media should
just have (for video dvd): Checkbox "Run application when video dvd is
inserted?" (or something like it) and than preferred applications
should take over. In reality this will make Removable devices and
media pointless because it has so little options that they can be
better placed in preferred applications ^_^
