totem and firefox work but no seek
mplayer bails out with message:
Failed to open LIRC support. You will not be able to use your remote
control.
Following the config file suggestion in
http://linuxindetails.wordpress.com/2010/03/31/failed-to-open-lirc-support-you-will-not-be-able-to-use-your-remote-control/
the error message goes but not the error

vlc plays sound no video

Surely there must be ways of converting webm to something more standard like
avi?
