I believe this could be interesting to a number of people on the list, not just me.

When running totem to play a move (e.g. mpeg-1 file), it fails with the message: "A MPEG-1 System Stream demuxer plugin is required to play this stream, but not installed." After reading docs and trying various things I've reduced the source of the problem to the package gstreamer-plugins-ugly-0.10.11-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm # rpm --rebuilddb # rpm -q libdvdread libdvdread-4.1.3-1.el5 #

Hi, I had downloaded CentOS 5.1 x86 DVD image, and although it passed sha1sum or md5sum test and I burned it verifying it, installation failed. Also if I recall correctly, when I tested the medium during install, it failed although as I said the media was verified. ==> The same things happen with Scientific Linux 5.1 x86 installation DVD, so perhaps it is a Red Hat EL 5.1 x86 DVD issue?

Hey All, Totem has stopped playing .wmv files recently. I don't know exactly when this happened, but I know I've played .wmv files not too very long ago. I've got 372 .wmv files all of which I've played at one time. When I try to launch any one of the .wmv files from file manager totem pops up but the controls are not functional. If I start totem from a terminal there is no

When I try to read a .wmv file, I get the error message: "Totem could not play 'file://tmp/F15.wmv'. You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins.' Granted that I am missing something, what is it, and where do I get it / install it? Thanks in advance -- Bob T.

Hello out there! Been around the block trying to get DVD support for Totem, but I keep running into dead ends everywhere I go. Looking for CentOS 5.1-compatible xine and xine-lib packages as that seems to be the answer, but the only ones I find (like on DAG) seem to be just dead links or I get a message that the mirrors are unavailable when I try to run the rpm. Can anyone provide a link

OS: CentOS 5.0 x86. I am a programmer, relatively new to GNU/Linux and am looking for cross platform GUI development, mainly for EL5 and Windows. I have found wxWidgets so far. I prefer drag 'n drop programming IDEs, QT seems to provide this for GNU/Linux, but it isn't free for Windows. Does anyone know of any decent GUI cross-platform library for EL5 and Windows with a drag 'n

Hi, I am surprised how some features are missing from CentOS 5. So far, I found missing: 1) GNOME Session does not prompt for saving on log out. 2) There isn't a "Run" option in the GNOME menus for running programs.

Hi all! On 7.1 + CR updates, running "yum list installed | grep -y totem" gives this: yum list installed | grep -y totem totem.x86_64 1:3.14.3-5.el7 @cr totem-nautilus.x86_64 1:3.14.3-5.el7 @cr totem-pl-parser.x86_64 3.10.5-1.el7 @cr and "yum list installed |

OS: CentOS 5.0 x86. Hi, I have some old music tapes and a walkman, and want to move the music to mp3 format. So far I am thinking to use Audacity to record the music to wavs, and then do not know, somehow I will compress the wavs to mp3s as vbr 192 Kbps with something. Has anyone done this? What app did you use for recording the music from the tapes and what app did you use to make it mp3?

CentOS-5.1 Is there anything special one must do to get the Totem shipped with CentOS-5 to display .mov files? When I try to view a file I get an error box with the message: Totem could not play 'file:///tmp/073_complex_forms_part_1.mov'. Could not decode stream." # rpm -qi totem Name : totem Relocations: (not relocatable) Version :

Can anybody please suggest a suitable plugin to enable playing of mp3 files with either Totem or Rythmbox. Both of these come as part of the CentOS 5 package, but strangely neither has the necessary plugin for mp3, which surely is a common enough format in the music world? Thanks, Andy

OS: CentOS 5 x86. I have read in some places that we can make an rpm package from tar.gz, by issuing rpmbuild -ta. However it doesn't seem to work. Any hints?

Is there any command that I can use to find the broken links that point to non-existent files? Thanks a lot.

Just tried to play a movie/DVD and Totem (what automatically popped up when I inserted the DVD) said it needed plug-ins... it didn't say which plug-ins. The website listed in the help page no longer exists. I have four of the gstreamer packages and libdvdcss installed, but I guess there's something more needed. Anyone know? tia for the tips. -- War is a failure of the imagination.

This is a new instalation of CentOS 5.2 When I go to FireFox and try to watch a Video clip, some files transfer, and then I get the message "General Error" in the video window. I ASSUME some additional software needs to be downloaded, but what from where? When running on that Other OS, a message comes up giving you an opertunity to do the download. --

With Theora having reached a bitstream-frozen status, and a beta1 release imminent, what are people's thoughts on the Fedora site about video applications in the desktop release ? This is the first time a royalty-free video codec is in a releasable and supportable state. Also, the GStreamer+totem stack should be a shippable solution supporting Theora very soon now. I'd love for it to be

I installed Centos on some machines that need long term support. I'm running up against some simple user convenience issues. How to play MP3? I've been really puzzled today that the addon rpm sites like livna, rpmforge, rpmfusion, epel, don't seem to have something like amarok-mp3 or xine-lib-mp3. What am I missing? It can be done in Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora Linux. In the
