Well, my Totem installation uses xine-libs as the back-end because that is what the Totem developers expect as the default. I'm not sure about the GStreamer back-end, I never built it that way. But I do know that the Totem Moz plugin works, without doing anything other than installing the package. I'm not sure about mozplugger, as I simply installed Totem, and then looking at about:plugins in Firefox, it was registered as a plugin. And worked. At least for the codecs xine-libs was aware of. It did choke on some videos that required additional win32 codecs, but I didn't adjust the xine-lib config file to look for them. I suppose I should set this up to find my installed MPlayer win32 codecs and see it all works well. I'll do that and report back. For info on the xine-lib config file to include additional codecs see http://www.xinehq.de/index.php/faq#WMV as an example of how to include the MPlayer "essential" codecs into xine-lib. This information (including the MPlayer 'essential' codecs into xine-libs) should probably be included into the xine-libs instructions.
