Another way is to right click on the file > properties > Associate Application > then it will give you alittle text box to type in.
Well easy as pie - you just type the command that starts your program ~ ie:
xmms [for audios]
or:
mplayer/gmplayer [for your movies]
or:
acroread [for pdf files]
et cetera ~ this can be very useful if the program you want to associate does not install itself into the X menu.
