vlc not play wmv

[dacer]

Hi, I bought a new computer and after install vlc (as debian package with apt-get) this do not play wmv files. Other players like MPlayer and Totem don't play too, so I think I must install any library that now I don't have. Or aybe I had it, and need to set path in vlc.

How can I know it?

Thanks

Hello,

You must install the "w32codecs" package from
http://debian.video.free.fr/

However, the Debian package for VLC does not have support for loading external codecs. You can use the nightly builds from http://nightlies.videolan.org that have this support enabled.
