How do I view MS .ASX multimedia files in Linux?

There are some really cool Microsoft ASX multimedia format files available...

And I don't have access to windows no more because I converted to Linux... I would really love to view these multimedia files.

Does anyone know of a program (Linux) that allows you to do this?

I am using Linux Mandrake 7.1 (coverdisc version)
KDE 1.1.2

Asam.

There is a plugin for Xmms that allows you to view these files. Look for it on freshmeat.net . I was not able to compile it since I have RedHat 7.0 on my box right now and it refuses to let me compile the plugin. I got close, but no cigar. I intend to try again after fischer becomes stable. Give freshmeat a look and see what you find.

Good Luck,

Kid
