Description Mike Hudson 2005-03-22 14:53:13 UTC
Many files might have a ".dat" extension. (In my case this means a file containg
"data", usually scientific data of some sort).  Its a real nuisance that GNOME
thinks such files are MPEGs. Can we remove this from the MPEG extension list?

        * freedesktop.org.xml.in: remove the wide *.dat glob from matching
        MPEG videos (Closes: #2788)
