totem does not play mp4 files on a new wheezy amd64 installation. I'm reporting
this here because wheezy is "testing" and one assumes you want to hear about
things before it becomes "stable."

mplayer2 and vlc work fine for mp4s. Also totem generally works for CDs and
DVDs, as I've installed the deb-multimedia codecs. I believe I have the correct
gstreamer modules installed too:

# dpkg --listfiles gstreamer0.10-plugins-good|grep mp
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gstreamer-0.10/libgstisomp4.so

Isn't this what totem is supposed to use for playing mp4 files?

The problem with mp4 files I have in wheezy are related to
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good. I have filed an amended bug report as
