What kind of file is .smi? I've never heard of it.

Yes, absolutely. Even more, Totem doesn't register as being capable of 
playing Real files at all. The only reason I can think of that this goes 
wrong for you, is that the web server passes an incorrect MIME type for 
the .smi file, but one that Totem does support.

You may want to check what MIME type you get by using wget to retrieve 
the URL of the .smi file.
