totem-xine can't read Vorbis files

I prefer to use totem-xine to read all of my multimedia files (audio and video).
I use Dries and Freshrpms repos by default but since these two repos don't have totem-xine I manually downloaded it from Livna and manually installed it. After doing that I can't read Vorbis encoded files anymore!!!
Does anyone know why this happens now??? All other multimedia files open (I have w32codecs installed also), the problem is only with Vorbis files.

NOTE: If i install totem (gstreamer based I can read Vorbis files but the quality in WMV files is less than adequate (too slow with frame loss)).

Thanks for any hints you can give me.

Hello:
This is just a suggestion.
Install the livna repository and after it is installed, go to /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo and set the
enabled=1
to
enabled=0
then run
yum --enablerepo=livna update totem-xine gstreamer*

you may find that you will have to remove a gstreamer-plugin or two from freshrpms for it to work, however, it should correct the problem you now have

i don't think this is going to work since he install from rpm from the sit so it should be the latest and the only gstramer package that livna have is ugly and ffmeg neither of which should include
support for Vorbis . Vorbis-tools include that support and that is found in extra. my suggestion ould be file a bug report with livna
and install xine which should have no problem picking up the installed codecs
