Mark Overton is still having a problem:
Hello Nandan,

I had some gstreamer codecs installed, but not all of them, and that was
the problem. Thanks!

Suggestion: Can Totem (and Rhythmbox) be modified to display a message
about which codec is missing? That would be friendlier than simply doing
nothing.

Best regards,

Mark Overton
