Helix-player, available as a Debian package for i386 and powerpc, is capable of handling "Basic SMIL 2.0" (according to the package description; I have never had an occasion to try it myself). Another thing: Please stop using replies to other list messages as a way to start new threads. Many email programs use the In-Reply-To header as the primary basis for threading; this means that your message will be included in an unrelated thread, regardless of the changed subject line. Here is what that looks like with Mutt: 1 L 04.07.07 Tony Heal ( 10K) upgrading to etch 2 L 04.07.07 Sam Leon (0.3K) ├─>Playing SMIL File 3 L 04.07.07 michael AT estone DOT ca (5.3K) ├─>Re: upgrading to etch 4 L 04.07.07 Ivan Aleman (4.4K) ├─> 5 L 04.07.07 Daniel Burrows (4.0K) └─> This practice of "thread-jacking" is problematic: - People who want to follow Tony Heal's thread about upgrading to etch are interrupted by a completely unrelated message. This might annoy them. - Anyone who is not interested in Tony's question might delete the entire thread without realizing that there was a another topic involved. This reduces the number of people who read your message, which obviously decreases your chances of getting help. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian |
