Unable to open mms streams

That bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/63432 "Binary package hint: totem-gstreamer Just installed edgy nightly snapshot 20061001 on a blank Thinkpad T30. Looking good :) However, even after installing gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg and gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly when I try to open any mms:// URL either in Totem File -> Open Location, or as an embedded video in Firefox, I am told: No URI handler implemented for "mms". ... > Thanks for your bug. Do you have any URI example? ... Absolutely any MMS stream - e.g. any 'Watch' link on news.bbc.co.uk mms://wm.bbc.co.uk/news/media/avdb/news_web/video/9012da6800530f8/bb/09012da680053149_16x9_bb.wmv This plays just perfectly on totem-gstreamer in dapper. ..."
You need mmssrc which is part of gst-plugins-bad.
that package is installed and gst-launch playbin doesn't complain about the location
> that package is installed and gst-launch playbin doesn't complain about the > location Ah, you didn't mention that before. So you can reproduce this as well then? (I can't, on edgy and with edgy packages) Could you do $ export GST_DEBUG_NO_COLOR=1 $ GST_DEBUG=*:5 totem mms://wm.bbc.co.uk/news/media/avdb/news_web/video/9012da6800530f8/bb/09012da680053149_16x9_bb.wmv 2>dbg.log ... wait until error comes up ... $ gzip dbg.log please and attach the dbg.log.gz file? Also, what's the output of: $ gst-launch --version and of $ gst-launch-0.10 mms and of $ gst-inspect-0.10 /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstmms.so ?
hum, it works fine today and it looks like I did a typo yesterday and tried with uri=mms:... yeasterday which is why I was getting the message. The distribution submitter has probably not the bad plugins installed, closing
