DVD's and wmv are patent encumbered and are not supported in Fedora Core. You will need to search for the plugins to play these formats. The totem homepage should help you with this. http://www.hadess.net/totem.php3. Thank you. Sorry for the post!! I had already looked at their web site for plugins but could not find what was needed. I sent a note to their contact and will wait on their reply. The maintainer just mailed me this URL http://www.hadess.net/totem.php3#codecs. I hope it helps. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041020 Description of problem: Totem will not work When I try to play a DVD movie I get the following response Totem cannot play this type of media (tmw_aspect_ratio_square_menu_item) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it. Please install the necessary plugins and restart Totem to be able to play this media. When I try to play an *wmv file from an attached e-mail file I receive the following: Totem could not play 'file:///home/greg/.evolution/cache/tmp/evolution-tmp-3Qm8ot/babygotbible.wmv'. Failed to open; reason unknown Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Trying to play any DVD 2.Trying to open a wmv file Additional info:
