[Bug 34948] ogg theora videos won't play

[davmor2]

Public bug reported:

Affects: totem totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Confirmed


Description:
I hit this problem before in breezy now with gstreamer0.10 part of the
problem has gone.  After installing totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin the
mpeg, of the links below, plays but the ogg theora won't.  Instaed it
selects totem as a player and downloads the file.

Here are the links.

Question how can it be that ogg isn't supported but mpeg is?

Running on an amd64 bit ubuntu dapper install.
