In the world we dwell in, the web video output of the entire organization is WM. People want to see the published work. WM archived files are no problem. Far as I know, there is no way to view live streaming WM - someone correct me if I'm wrong. Look at the archives of the past 24 hours for instrux to get WM working in Fedora - it will get you 90% of the way - you will be able to click on WM files on most webpages and play them. If it's live streaming though, it won't work. I haven't gotten WM to work yet under Wine, but, that has been done - I can't speak to whether that will get you the live streams. Someone who has gotten WM under Wine installed may speak up - I would be interested to know the answer. -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
