• Problem playing media off of samba share - Ubuntu Forums
  I'm trying to connect to my file-server (Samba share) and play some media-files on it through Totem and Rythmbox. I can open and browse the share just fine in Nautilus (through gnome-vfs), but when I try to play a file directly off the server, Totem/Rythmbox just complains that it "Could not read resource". If I copy the file locally and play it, everything's fine and dandy.

• Problems with Samba share with cifs and smbfs - Ubuntu Forums
  I have Ubuntu 6.06 installed on my Acer 1682WLMI laptop. My LAN includes a server machine running FC4, with several shares mounted with Samba. Yesterday, I upgraded the packages on the FC4 machine, and these included Samba, which is now at 3.0.23a. Unfortunately, this seems to have broken my mounted shares, which is annoying as I'd only just got them working a couple of days ago.

• Samba - Amarok Wiki
  Using Samba shares with Amarok. You have your music files on a remote computer, and you share these files via samba/windows file sharing. The shared files may be read only or writeable by you, and you have them mounted on your local filesystem. You can access the files just fine there and play them, but they cannot be added to the collection. Adding silently fails, is very slow, or music gets added but cannot be played.

• Video playback problems in firefox - Ubuntu Forums
  I can't seem to play any type of embedded video in Firefox anymore. Example: if I try to play a video through BBC News Player, MPlayer plug-in begins buffering the video and then stops without playing anything. Same behaviour appears when attempting to playback any type of embedded video in Firefox. The behaviour doesn't appear to be type or site specific. This didn't always happen. I first noticed the behaviour after I removed totem-xine and replaced it with totem-gstreamer. (I did this because totem-xine wouldn't playback video smoothly from a shared networked drive, but totem-gstreamer would.)

• Video Podcast feed - Ubuntu Forums
  Does anyone have a decent technique for downloading and watching video podcasts? iTunes made it so easy and I've not found a viable substitute for Ubuntu yet. Specifically, I want to be able to download a video version of diggnation each week. I want the program to download the new podcast to a specified folder and allow me to play the podcast without having to manually open another player. I can handle it if the program opens another media player to play the podcast. Seriously, is there a program that will do all this? Or do I have to hop on board some project to make it a reality?

• cifs mounted filesystem does not show files and directories
  I have a Synology 106e (Firmware Version: 2.0.1 - 3.0368). I have created a share (data) on the Synolgy device. I mounted it on a Windows XP system and it works fine. I also tried to mount the share from two of my linux systems (Fedora Core 5 and 6), both with the same problem: It mounts the file system and I can read and write files to it but when I perform an ls (in a terminal) or use the graphic filemanager no files or directories are shown!

• Gentoo Linux Documentation -- Using UTF-8 with Gentoo
  This guide shows you how to set up and use the UTF-8 Unicode character set with your Gentoo Linux system, after explaining the benefits of Unicode and more specifically UTF-8. Computers do not understand text themselves. Instead, every character is represented by a number. Traditionally, each set of numbers used to represent alphabets and characters (known as a coding system, encoding or character set) was limited in size due to limitations in computer hardware.

  I thought it might be nice if we all contribute some tips on common ways to solve problems. If there is a similar thread please let me know and perhaps we can merge them or at least reference it. Also, I will make another post in this thread containing a list of all the commands, configuration files, and all of the URLs. Finally, I strongly encourage others to contribute their ideas and I will add more ideas if they occur to me. Perhaps if there is enough demand, we can make a wiki (again if doesn't exist already)

• How to make all video/audio files work on an Ubuntu Breezy system » Eric’s Blog » Blog Archive
  Having trouble playing DVDs, MP3s, DiVX, AAC/MP4, XViD or WMV audio/video files on your Ubuntu Breezy system? Since these fomats are all proprietary, the companies that invented them require that developers purchase a (very expensive) license to legally decode (play back) files in these formats (with the exception of XViD which has had a completely different set of licence/patent-related problems), so Ubuntu cannot legally include these codecs in the base install.
