I'm using the default media player for playing my music video collection.

You cannot create video playlists with the default media player. And it is also not possible to start a video playlist from within the media player ui.

But you can use dbus to load a video playlist!
Try the following command (xterm). Put your video play list in the MyDocs directory. Filename "Musik Videos.m3u". Of course you can change that.

Code:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mediaplayer /com/nokia/mediaplayer com.nokia.mediaplayer.mime_open string:"file:///home/user/MyDocs/Musik%20Videos.m3u"

If that's working, you can create a shortcut for playing that play list... Let me know if you are ready for that step.
