    totem streaming

    Is there any way to make streaming videos in totem actually work? I wanted to watch a video using it's firefox plugin, but that was buffering every few seconds, so I right clicked on the video and launched the video in the actual player. From there I found that the buffering problem was just as bad, with there being no option at all to change how much it buffered, as changing the networking speed in preferences did absolutely nothing. There is no option to save the video. It won't even tell me what the video's actual address is (the video stream was embedded in the web page so I have no way of knowing from that) after I clicked on properties.
    Why does totem have to be so unusable when it comes to streaming video?

    Could you please give the web page in order for others to test it.

    I'm using totem-xine with its mozilla plugin and generally streaming works just fine for me.

    The video in particular is: http://www.koat.com/news/17139064/detail.html (click the video link on the right and then it will load)
    I don't know if the website was just slow or if my connection was slow when I was trying it, however, I would still want a way to download video streams, and I couldn't find the video location (which totem should show) itself to save it.
