[Solved in GIT]xmms2 error when trying to play *.wma files

Hi - I just installed xmms2 and find it to fit my needs pretty well.  I'm not able to make it play wma files though.

Here's the relevant section from xmms2d.log

--- Starting new xmms2d ---

I have ffmpeg installed :

The files in question play wo problems with mplayer and vlc.

Any ideas ?

Seems it is an upstream problem - see http://bugs.xmms2.xmms.se/view.php?id=2332

Think I will wait until they get it fixed.
