For some reason I have problems downloading video clips from most
mainstream news providers.

For example on the front page of www.smh.com.au there is a picture at
the moment of a mouse fearlessly staring down a cat. This picture links
to a Windows Media clip.

When i clikc on the picture (using either Iceweasel or Opera 9.5) the
following happens

1. It opens the video page which helpfully tells me "Detecting video
settings"

2. The gxine browser plug-in starts.

3. It flashes up the URL of the clip, but pressing the play button
doesn't do anything.

4. If I copy the URL into the "Open MRL" dialog, nothing happens.

I've had similar results on other news sites such as bbc.co.uk as well
as the other video clips at smh.com.au

Would some knowledgeable person be able to tell me how to configure the
browsers/ plugins to make this work properly? 


Thanks
