Trying to play a *.asx file I get the message: „GstDecodeBin2:This appears to be a text file.“ It seems that asx files which contain a dynamic link produce this message. I can play the same file in “Windows Media player” immediately! In Ubuntu I have installed all codecs. It did not help. Neither Totem nor VLC is able to stream the file.
