MMS stuff and Totem

I am sure that mms stuff and totem have been discussed before but can't
seem to find anything in the archives that specifically concerns my
interest.  I wish there was a way to search the fedora archives so it
would be easier to find what you are looking for?? (Is there a way??).

Now my question is this:

otem could not play
'mms://wmscnn.stream.aol.com.edgestreams.net/cnn/world/2006/12/07/eccleston.uk.spy.funeral.affl.ws.wmv'.

Has anyone been successful with FC6 to be able to view the video streams
found on CNN.  I used to be able to do it with FC5 and can still now do
it with Slackware 11,  but I have no idea how to get it to work on FC6.

If anyone has been successful I would certainly appreciate knowing how
to do it.

So far I have adjusted my Yum to use the Livna resources and have
updated my system with Livna in place. And that went well. And than I
specifically added all the I could think of that related to video,
including Kaffeine and of course xine.  But no luck.  I have even tried
installing from a tar file the adobe_flash and that doesn't help.

What is the clue to getting totem to see the mms files??
