On edgy with totem-gstreamer I tried to use the wvx files available at http://www.wsa.soton.ac.uk/choosing-wsa/streaming-video/default.asp
There was no player known for this file. I have the necessary codecs for windows media player, so browsing to /usr/bin/totem in firefox caused totem to fire up and it worked fine. The file is a redirect to a windows media file: <ASX version = "3.0"> <ENTRY> <REF HREF = "mms://mms.soton.ac.uk/art_fashion/fashion2005_390k.wmv"/> </ENTRY> </ASX> http://filext.com/detaillist.php?extdetail=WVX lists the mime type as video/x-ms-wvx As totem parses this it should be added to the system mime listings. -- Totem should handle '.wvx' extension https://launchpad.net/bugs/45982 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
