Yup ... the same thing happens if I double click on those files in Windows or Linux. The default media player opens and plays the video and audio if the file contains both or the same media player opens and just plays the audio if that is all there is ... and maybe a visualization if you have that enabled. The one funny thing that I do see is many asf files mislabeled as wmv files. Something in Linux doesn't like when the mime-type found via magic doesn't match the extension and pops up a warning. From what I understand, asf and wmv have different mime-types but asf containers can contain wmv content ... talk about confusing. /Mike
