[Bug 43589] Re: [totem-gstreamer] wont play vcd for "unknown reason"

[Shahar Or]

I've updated the description based on my findings. Hope it's OK.

Now the question is, is this a bug in totem? Should totem be expected to
play it given the 'totem /media/cdrom0' command?

In any case, can the default command be changed as a workaround?

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: totem-xine
+ In karmic, one of the actions for a VCD is to open it with totem. This
+ results in an error message.
  
- xine plays them just fine.
+ The command totem is launched with is something like 'totem
+ /media/cdrom0'.
  
- thanks
+ The command 'totem vcd://' gets the VCD playing alright.
