Totem or totem gstreamer wont decode quicktime or wmv movies!
i cannot get totem to play quicktime .mov(s) or wmv files.
I've apt-get(ted)/(got?) gstreamer0.8 and the gstreamer-plugins as well as the ffmeg and faad plugins. As soon as i click on a .mov file, totem says it's unable to decode it. I've check the addons folder and the qt and win codecs are all there. gst-register shows the ffmpeg is there too. any ideas? it works ok with mplayer... help please!! si:( :newbie: |
use xine or mplayer i have never had good results with totem
|
true.
but i preferred the ui in totem, simple and gnome-like. unlike mplayer's gawdy blue and xine's 'i look to hi-tech' but thanks for the info. s |
use gxine if u want simple gnome-ish looks
|
good call.
it all works fine now. so much for totem then... jsut cant work out why it doesnt work when it did before... anyway thanks si :study: |
There is a version of totem that uses xine libs as the backend. You may want to look into that.
