Description Dan Siemon 2006-05-06 18:43:01 UTC 
When attempting to load a media file from a davs URI Totem fails with the error "No URI handler implemented for "davs"". Other GNOME programs such as gedit are able to read and save files to the same davs directory.
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2006-05-07 11:00:15 UTC 
Are you using the xine-lib, or the GStreamer backend ? (see the about box)
Comment 2 Dan Siemon 2006-05-08 21:58:30 UTC 
Totem 1.4.0 from FC5.  GStreamer 0.10.5.

Some gstreamer packages are from http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/download/fedora5.html.
Comment 3 Tim-Philipp Müller 2006-05-09 10:09:51 UTC 
This is correct, gnomevfssrc has a whitelist of protocols that it supports.

Could you point me towards a publicly accessible resource that you'd want to play in totem, so I can see whether it's possible to add support for this?
Comment 4 Dan Siemon 2006-05-09 15:09:48 UTC 
Emailed a DAV URL to t.i.m@zen.co.uk.
Comment 5 Tim-Philipp Müller 2006-06-10 18:38:46 UTC 
Tried adding dav/davs, but ran into problems the exact nature of which I cannot remember right now (I think davs was problematic), in any case re-assigning to gst-plugins-base.
Comment 6 Loïc Minier 2006-06-24 12:41:38 UTC 
Mike Hommey reported this problem in Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/370362 and explained this was a regression from the 0.8 series.  He tested re-adding dav:// URI support in the gnomevfs and it solved the problem for him.
Comment 7 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2006-06-24 17:43:34 UTC 
Loïc, some time ago I tried exactly the same patch and it had some negative side effects like making gst-inspect-0.10 freezing. Does this still work for you after applying the patch?
Comment 8 Loïc Minier 2006-06-25 16:59:24 UTC 
Sebastian, I added the patch as currently in pkg-gstreamer's SVN and exactly as Mike provided, and gst-inspect-0.10 still works fine; this is under x86.

I only added "dav://", not "davs://" though, and I know whether your freeze pre-dates the rewrite of the registry scanning with the fork(), so perhaps this could explain the difference.
Comment 9 Edward Hervey 2009-03-11 08:33:48 UTC 
Loic, Sebastien: Shouldn't this be moved to giosrc ?

giosrc seems to provide support for dav:// on my machine.
Comment 10 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2009-09-10 07:21:31 UTC 
giosrc properly supports dav URLs, gnomevfs is deprecated so let's close this.
