I never have much luck with totem, it fails in a similar way with various video formats. I generally use VLC for useful playback (e.g. jukeboxing), or mpv for quick playback of something I've double-clicked on. They're better at handling more file type varieties. But since it says text/html, are you sure that your file isn't a textual error message saved in the same filename as the media file that you're expecting to play? -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
