Smile playing asx files format in ubuntu 12.04


I want to listen music from manavai.com. In this site the music files are in the *.asx format. It is working very well in windows as well as Fedora 13 but not in ubuntu. I am the new user of linux. Can you any one help me to sortout this problem?

I have never heard of that format. I did a search on it for playing under Debian (base of Ubuntu). This seems to have been possible as far back as O3. It may be tricky however.

Here is the search I used;
http://www.search.com/search?q=play+in+Debian+.asx&w=on

That included this fairly current link relating to Ubuntu;
http://superuser.com/questions/39306...x-command-line

Looks like it is possible using VLC. It comes with its own codec suite so installing it would be a good thing to try anyway.

You will find a couple of posts from the Debian forums, they should help point the way for you too.

Don't know how you set up your system this link may help;

Be sure you have the right repos enabled for non-free stuff including medibuntu.
