For example, you might want your photo organizer to start when you plug in a digital camera. You can also turn this off, so that nothing happens when you plug something in.</p> <p>To decide which applications should start when you plug in various devices: </p> <steps> <item> <p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and start typing <gui>Details</gui>.</p> </item> <item> <p>Click on <gui>Details</gui> to open the panel.</p> </item> <item> <p>Click <gui>Removable Media</gui>.</p> </item> <item> <p>Find your desired device or media type, and then choose an application or action for that media type. See below for a description of the different types of devices and media.</p> <p>Instead of starting an application, you can also set it so that the device will be shown in the file manager, with the <gui>Open folder</gui> option. When that happens, you will be asked what to do, or nothing will happen automatically.</p> </item> <item> <p>If you do not see the device or media type that you want to change in the list (such as Blu-ray discs or E-book readers), click <gui>Other Media…</gui> to see a more detailed list of devices. Select the type of device or media from the <gui>Type</gui> drop-down and the application or action from the <gui>Action</gui> drop-down.</p> </item> </steps> <note style="tip"> <p>If you do not want any applications to be opened automatically, whatever you plug in, select <gui>Never prompt or start programs on media insertion</gui> at the bottom of the <gui>Details</gui> window.</p> </note> <section id="files-types-of-devices"> <title>Types of devices and media</title> <terms> <item> <title>Audio discs</title> <p>Choose your favorite music application or CD audio extractor to handle audio CDs. If you use audio DVDs (DVD-A), select how to open them under <gui>Other Media…</gui>. If you open an audio disc with the file manager, the tracks will appear as WAV files that you can play in any audio player application.</p> </item> <item> <title>Video discs</title> <p>Choose your favorite video application to handle video DVDs. Use the <gui>Other Media…</gui> button to set an application for Blu-ray, HD DVD, video CD (VCD), and super video CD (SVCD). If DVDs or other video discs do not work correctly when you insert them, see <link xref="video-dvd"/>. </p> </item> <item> <title>Blank discs</title> <p>Use the <gui>Other Media…</gui> button to select a disc-writing application for blank CDs, blank DVDs, blank Blu-ray discs, and blank HD DVDs.</p> </item> <item> <title>Cameras and photos</title> <p>Use the <gui>Photos</gui> drop-down to choose a photo-management application to run when you plug in your digital camera, or when you insert a media card from a camera, such as a CF, SD, MMC, or MS card. You can also simply browse your photos using the file manager.</p> <p>Under <gui>Other Media…</gui>, you can select an application to open Kodak picture CDs, such as those you might have made in a store. These are regular data CDs with JPEG images in a folder called <file>Pictures</file>.</p> </item> <item> <title>Music players</title> <p>Choose an application to manage the music library on your portable music player, or manage the files yourself using the file manager.</p> </item> <item> <title>E-book readers</title> <p>Use the <gui>Other Media…</gui> button to choose an application to manage the books on your e-book reader, or manage the files yourself using the file manager.</p> </item> <item> <title>Software</title> <p>Some discs and removable media contain software that is supposed to be run automatically when the media is inserted. Use the <gui>Software</gui> option to control what to do when media with autorun software is inserted. You will always be prompted for a confirmation before software is run.</p> <note style="warning"> <p>Never run software from media you don’t trust.</p> </note> </item> </terms> </section> </page> |
