Totem Plugin Viewer requires the following additional proprietary third-party software to support the content you have attempted to play:
MMSH protocol source (GStreamer, 32 bit, i586)
The following links may assist you in obtaining the necessary software:
Fluendo Webshop Fluendo provides high quality codecs for the GStreamer multimedia framework.
Community Information Alternate codecs are available by following community instructions, but may require a license.
I use Mozilla. Youtube and some other like services cnbc stream well on my computer. I have installed codecs according to this (although there were some conflicts which I chose to ignore)
I also found this with the forums search: Mmsh Streaming Problem - openSUSE Forums
(The guy basically had the same problem and solved it but forgot to tell others what the solution was (!))
I don’t know what I have to install to get the streamer working. Thanks for any helpful comments in advance
In regards to just having it play straight from the first link you gave, there are several posts around from people having the same problem. No answer yet sorry.
This works to get firfox to ask for mms to be opened in (e.g. in vlc) but it does not do it for your site where the mms is embedded in the http address. I think I read somewhere that doing it that way is to difficult for firefox to work out.
Anyway I can also confirm that firefox does not handle the mms protocol internally (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=477795#c1) so it will always need to be played outside firefox anyway, unless you change it to http as I mentioned in my last post.
