Hi,

i tested the Media Pref with R5 media kit, it behaves correctly. I tested with 
OBOS media kit, and it does what Axel described. I'm in the process of fixing 
things in libmedia.so to have the correct behavior.

But i have now a blocking problem : the Media Pref links against several libs 
and need to call launch_media_server(). The actual called version of 
launch_media_server is currently the one in libbe.so. So implementing it in 
libmedia.so is useless. Is there a mean to force to search a symbol in a 
specific library ?

Thanks in advance,
Jerome
