Re: Cannot Play Youtube in Totem

Hi,

Running Fedora 13 with Totem Movie Player 2.30.2. No matter what links I followed on Google, I am just not able to play Youtube through Totem.
Moving the cursor on the Youtube vids displayed, it shows "No video URI" and double clicking on any video gives the following pop-up

"An error occured. Could not oepn location; you might not have permission to open the file"

As suggested at http://linuxdesk.wordpress.com/2009/09/22/could-not-open-location-you-might-not-have-permission-to-open-the-file-totem-movie-player/

I

noticed that I do NOT have the youtube.py file.

Can anyone please suggest where can I get this file. Also, is this file exclusively meant for Ubuntu or even FC users can use it?

I

have all the relevant good, bad, ugly Gstreamer plugins for FC 13. Yet I am unable to play Youtube.

Please assist on this. Thanks..

The easiest fix is change distros to something multi media oriented like PClinuxOS, Ubuntu and its spin offs, etc. Once you gain enough experience you can go back to Fedora and know what you need to do.
