Just tried it, same issue here. I don't know why it doesn't work with MorphOS' own Ed but it works with other default tools, best examples being IconX for shell scripts or Installer for installation scripts.

Ed probably just doesn't handle wbargs, nothing to do with ambient itself, nor mimetypes.

It's been a while since this topic of MIME settings came up, but I wondered if there's an easy way to set MIME to load a CD Player when an Audio CD (device) is inserted, or selected via a right mouse click to choose the tracks to play instead of having to 'open' the device initially and then choose a file via 'Play' or some other MIME setting option from a right mouse click event?

I see MOS recognise that a CD is an Audio CD when such a CD is inserted so I hope someone can offer some advice on how to make this request of mine possible.

Take a look at MagicBeacon. It have a command to play DVD via MPlayer when one DVD is inserted and detected.

Maybe you can configure it for makes what you want.
