hi

i am a TAU student and want to watch the lectures i missed via
video.tau.ac.il

the site supports only MSIE, but i was able, by viewing the source using
MSIE, to get the urls (mms) of the videos

i tried playing it with mplayer or vlc, it seems it is wmv9.
i could play the video, but not the audio
the audio type is 0xA

how can i play the audio ? (can i take DLLs from WMplayer and use with
mplayer ? if so where to put them ?)

another issue is, when using MSIE there is an option to play normal, fast or
slow speed, without altering the pitch of the voice.
however, downloading the file and using WMPlayer to play it, does not let me
change the speed or even skip forward or backward
the only other software i know that enables playing fast or slow without
changing the pitch is mythtv's internal player
but AFAIk, it does not play wmv9

i guess if i could play the audio with mplayer, i could use mencoder to
transcode to a format mythtv player can play.

so:
1. how can i play the audio ?
2. any linux software other then mythtv which can play faster or slower with
voice, without changing the pitch ?


thanks,
erez.
