Hi,

I installed the lastfm-player from cooker which is a internet radio client for http://www.last.fm/
All works well when I start it seperately, but whenever I click at a radio station link at the Last.fm website which would start the player with the particular radio station it says:

lastfm is not a registered protocol

Question is: how do I make lastfm a registered protocol and how do I associate it with the lastfm-player?

Thanks!

Nevermind, found out myself, sorry for the trouble :D

In Firefox about:config made a new string called network.protocol-handler.app.lastfm
and then in the value added the path to the player (/usr/bin/lastfm-player in my case)

p.s. Actually this is not a cooker problem, but a problem in the player/firefox
Compiling from source would have the same result
