Agree with Kaustubh,use mplayer. Get mplayer, get the essential codec pack,uncompress and put it into /usr/lib/win32/ or other appropriate place and play all kinds of media :) A slightly different approach would be to use something like zamzar.com and get the file(s) transcoded... or do it yourself using mencoder :)>-
I believe it is rather unethical to use Windows dlls in this manner. Especially if you have embraced Linux as a matter of principle, not price. Further, doing so removes the incentive for people trying to reverse engineer proprietary codecs, and finally harms the open standards / source philosophy. I have used vlc quite often for playing flv files, and it works satisfactorily. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
