            Bug ID: 416102
           Summary: Broken MPRIS implementation
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: master
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: DataEngines
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: jasonlevigr...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: 1.0

https://phabricator.kde.org/D22596 Checks for the presence of the 
SupportedUriSchemes and SupportedMimeTypes properties to verify that a player
complies with the MPRIS spec. The problem is that it's perfectly valid for a
player to not support the opening of external media files and so report nothing
for those properties (and empty array or an array with a single empty string
and so on). As those properties are meant to let clients know what the player
can open with the OpenUri method.

This overzealous check breaks MPRIS support for basically any player that
doesn't lie about not being able to open external media.

Pithos for example:
