Apologies! Please disregard my last reply. I have two virtual Ubuntu
systems running in
VMWare on my intelMacBookPro. The original bug report was my Edubuntu
7.04 install
but my reply was based on my Ubuntu 5.10 version of Totem. When I
installed them the
names were so similar I was temporarily confused.

Regarding the bug report, I had tried 3 times to install the codecs but
failed as first reported
but I hadn't shutdown before I gave up. Rebooting that partition today,
I was able to have a fresh
start. This time when I selected the codecs I got a warning message for
each one that stopped
my double click from immediately starting to install the first selected
codec. I realize now that
my double-click had hastened the process before. This time I was able to
select each set of
GSStreamer codecs and 'applied' them all at the same time so my install
went successfully
and the file played.
The short of it this is that I was not able to replicate the bug after
rebooting. - bad debugging -
but I did sucessfully install the necesary codecs. The original codec I
selected before the bug
appeared, "GSStreamer extra codecs - bad multiverse" was the only one
listed that had the
mp3 codec so I don't know why the original install that I did didn't go
well, but the conclusion
I can make is that the bug was a system glitch that was solved by
rebooting the system.

I want to thank you for your prompt response to my report. Sorry I
didn't have the time
suss it out before crying "UNCLE".
