Comment 2 for bug 38169

Thanks for your bug. I'm not sure that's a totem bug. I've tried from Ubuntu 5.10 with totem-xine it doesn't work neither, nor does mozilla-mplayer on dapper. There is an issue which is that totem doesn't list the "video/x-ms-wvx" type, but without that the website seems to be made for windows player.

Discussion with chpe (upstream for epiphany) on IRC:

<seb128> I got the mimetype with ethereal before when running mplayer on http://mediaserver.kataweb.it/tgrep/tg12.wmv
<chpe> hmm not sure, but that JS seems windows-centric, it tries to instaniate the flash plugin with <object classid... not sure that works on linux at all
...
<chpe> I don't think this works on linux, it looks for "Media Player"...
...
<chpe> if you change the plugin
<chpe> *((char **)value) = "Totem Mozilla Plugin";
<chpe> to "Windows Media Player (Totem; compatible)" or sth like that
...
<chpe> but then the JS expects the windows media player JS objects, which totem doesn't implement... will probably warn on JS console and/or not work :)
<seb128> hum, k, thank you for the comments on that

Do you have it working on linux with some other browser or player?
