I've been trying a few things but just can't get mozilla (unstable) to view the videos (realaudio plugin?) from the BBC web page http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/video_and_audio/default.stm Any clues any body?? Thanks, Michael
Oddly enough, even with realplayer installed, I tell it I want realplayer and it tells me it can't find a realplay or hxplay in the system search path (it being iceweasel). But if I tell it Windows media, up pops mozilla-mplayer plugin and all is well. It seems that abcnews videos play now. They wouldn't before - but I'm just checking this new beta i-caught service on ABC news and those videos seem to play. On the realplay issue specifically, I got some error messages from the player when I tried the OP's bbc web content with the "realplay" option, stuff about ignoring an unknown attribute and seeing data after a newline so it is probably confused about something. That's not very helpful, and it's difficult for me to copy the terminal output and paste it in iceweasel/gmail - the $*$* editor thing highlights all my entered text and when I try and paste I lose everything I typed.. it's irritating.. ;(
