After 14.04 update video/totem won't play midi
- by bruce
Prior to the upgrade, I could be on wikipedia and play the 'play' links fine where totem would open a window and have screen graphics go on.
Now, after researching, installing VLC and it's extensions, making sure the gnome codec installer is activated, and on and on, all I get is :
"The parameters passed to the application had an invalid format. Please file a bug!
The parameters were:
--transient-for=16777296
gstreamer|1.0|totem-plugin-viewer|audio/x-midi-event decoder|decoder-audio/x-midi-event"
When totem/video opens and I'm not sure whether the bug is being reported or not.
Meaning I don't know if APPOrt is active for this as there's no box with a checkmark in it display.
AND the window for totem/video ALWAYS has the sound muted when it opens.
