How do i make it so when someone clicks my link it automatically opens in a media player instead of trying to open in web browser?

you are probably specifying a link without the m3u extension. You can place a pls file in webroot as well and link to that. you get the browser to download the playlist, the browser then starts the player with the playlist.
