Digging around in the HTML source, I find windows Media that gnome/Totem could have played (if ...), but: http://www.sonicftp.com/vids/wmv/soundsexpo04_linuxaudio.wmv returns >>The requested URL /vids/wmv/soundsexpo04_linuxaudio.wmv was not found on this server. >>Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. The QuickTime links won't work from the Mac either, which makes believe that something on that site is totally misconfigured :-( /jens BTW: Why are we getting so many (32) copies of each posting? > > > Chris >
