    hi folks,

    someone's sent me a bunch of movies in wmv format that I'm not able to
    play using xine, mplayer, or vlc. They are apparently in the format
    used by Windows Media Player 10 -- I get errors like these when I try
    to play them:

    vlc:
    [00000258] main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc
    `WMV3'.

    mplayer:
    Requested video codec family [wmv9dmo] (vfm=dmo) not available.
    Enable it at compilation.
    Requested video codec family [wmvdmo] (vfm=dmo) not available.
    Enable it at compilation.

    does anyone know whether this format is supported by any of the
    mediaplayers we have access to?

    thanks,

    matt
