Totem xine problem

[RastaMahata]

I was unable to play the audio in my quicktime files. This is the output from the console when running totem and loading a .mov file:

alvaro@Eleanor:~$ totem
wine/module: Win32 LoadLibrary failed to load: qtmlClient.dll, /home/alvaro/.gnome2/totem-addons/qtmlClient.dll, /usr/lib/win32/qtmlClient.dll, /usr/local/lib/win32/qtmlClient.dll

I can see the movie just fine, but no audio at all.

Have you installed the w32codecs package?

It is to play some formats

woah, thanks for the fast reply.

Since when is this true? I was able to play quicktime moves just fine before this backport (that's totem-xine 1.0)

Those codecs were borken out of xine due to patent/copyright issues. You have always needed them to play quicktime with totem-xine.
