When you open a media file which requires additional plugins, it automatically downloads the necessary plugins and installs them, provided you agree to do so.
A few of the media file formats require non-free plugins/codecs and hence are not enabled by default. If you are ok with using non-free codecs, they are enabled and used for you. This is the reason that some media files may not be able to play by default. For more information regarding restricted formats and how to enable them, check with the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats page. Please ensure whether you have enabled "Multiverse" repository in the Synaptic Package Manager. ** Changed in: totem (Ubuntu) Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) => (unassigned) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- Does Totem work or is there something that works. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183699 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
