I made some progress in solving the problem, but unfortunately I still cannot play the .asx file on my Totem Media Player. This is what I did:
- I opened Ubuntu Software Center, which was the old version that still came in default in Linux Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Note: This is not the same as GNOME Software a.k.a. Ubuntu Software, that is nowadays the default application manager in Linux Ubuntu 16.04 LTS!
- I searched for
GStreamer plugins for mms, wavpack, quicktime, musepack
and installed it. Now when trying to open the .asx file, the automatic installer is only asking to install gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad (i386)
. And now actually, the automatic installer actually works!
Well, now the both packages seem to be installed. However, when opening the .asx file, nothing still happens. Any thoughts / suggestions?
