Hit 2 new file-types (at least new to me :'(  )

Bought a BB King lick lesson that came with sheet that is in .gpx format, which apparently is the latest version of Guitar Pro 6 files.
Which my good ol TuxGuitar won't touch.
Haven't found anything to open and print them with yet.

And good old youtube handed me some .webm files when the videos were captured.
The newest version of VLC will play them, as will a webmdshow directx filter (worked on windows 7) available from here

Strangely I did not have to do anything to my Linux based laptop, it just captured the files and played them with no issues :)

Here's a site that's supposed to be able to convert .gpx files to other formats:

I haven't tried it. Just found it with a Google search.

Thanks!
That site worked , converted the gpx file to a gp5 file tuxguitar can handle.

Here's hoping tuxguitar gets an update to include the new format
the site forums seems to be full of spammers now
