Yup.
Is this correct? How does it play contnent? The best would probably
be
gstreamer (adding a gstreamer plugin would then make it work in
openoffice, totem etc.).
It's implemented using the windows media api on win32 and the java media
framework on everything else. There are some problems with it:

A gstreamer-based implementation would be a much better way to go since
the java media stuff is not that great and it seems like it's not being
maintained very well. Porting to gstreamer could be a lot of work, but
maybe the gstreamer people are better at estimating that...
