  I don't have the expertise of Michael. However, I see nothing wrong.

  With the moniker string 'file:some.avi', you are asking for a Bonobo
Control which can open the file 'some.avi'. In the Bonobo framework,
only components with the Bonobo::PersistStream interface can open files.
Well, there are other interfaces it could use, but the file: moniker was
designed this way.

  Nautilus uses its own, private interface, namely Nautilus::View. I bet
lumiére implements that interface.

  To be able to obtain the lumiére control, you have to create a custom
query, with bonobo-activation.

<example>
Bonobo_Unknown obj;
Bonobo_Control control;

obj = bonobo_activation_activate("bonobo:supported_mime_types.has
('video/x-msvideo') AND repo_ids.has ('Bonobo/Control') ",
	NULL, 0, NULL, NULL);
if (ob != CORBA_OBJECT_NIL)
	control = Bonobo_Unknown_queryInterface(obj, "Bonobo/Control", NULL);
</example>

  Regards.
