Hello, Today the internet is becoming more and more Windows specific. The WMF streaming is becoming more and more popular and is forcing people to use Windows as operating system. In Belgium Governomental radios publish WMF for live broadcast. There is clearly a need to support this standard on Linux. Does anybody know of any initiative in this direction? Greetings, Luc
You can purchase the Crossover Plug-In from Codeweavers which enables you to install and run an instance of Windows Media Player, Internet Explorer and Microsoft Office. With Windows Media Player you can listen to the wmf standard natively. -Tony Jones -----Original Message----- From: Vanlathem [mailto:bambameke@pandora.be] Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 10:27 AM To: suse-multimedia-e@suse.com Subject: [suse-multimedia-e] Windows Meta File Hello, Today the internet is becoming more and more Windows specific.

Good idea! :) Can then someone make a memory dump and have a linux-executable that can play windows media? Actually, avifile package (delivered wich SuSE as well), has some basic support for wmf files (originally designed for divx playback). Still I could not make it play streaming media. .asf files were ok, though... If someone gets a working (and preferable free) solution for this, drop me a line...
