WMV Codecs?


I am using Debian on a 64 bit machine and was wondering if W32 or codecs for .wmv files were available or because I am using a 64 bit kernal and application, there are no codecs available for Totem aka "Movie Player"?

Thanks for any info and or help!

I simply avoid Totem and use mplayer and vlc exclusively - those play nearly everything nowadays without having to build a chroot.
