WebM mime type

December 24, 2010 — BarryK
Mplayer in Wary can play WebM videos, however ROX-Filer does not associate files with extension .webm with a player.

Forum member 'abushcrafter' posted a demo .webm file here:

...beware, it is 52MB.

I have added recognition of .webm files to the shared-mime-info package that Woof-built puppies are using (though need to upgrade that pkg soon as it is version 0.70 and latest is 0.90).

I also added .webm handling into /root/Choices/MIME-types, for ROX-Filer.

Hint: A name is not spelled correctly ;). Thanks for sorting the mime type. That had been annoying me a bit.
