My 2¢: Totem doesn't work and the totem plugin conflicts with totem. Go 
figure. Get rid of them and use kaffeine, kplayer, xine and get the mplayer 
codecs. Use mplayerplug-in and don't use realplayer or any others, except for 
flash from adobe and the sun java plugin, to avoid conflicts with 2 plugins 
handling the same media. My system works with most sites. I had a problem 
viewing the yahoo sports video clips, and haven't tried since this seventh 
reinstallation. The ones on sports illustrated worked fine and so does pbs. I 
have even managed to watch the video clips on cmt and listen to the albums, 
as well as radio stations from around the world. The mplayerplug-in is 
fantastic.

In short, my setup is exactly like Antonio's.
