The best way I know of to diagnose mplayerplug-in problems is to capture the URL of the video you are trying to play and try to play it from the command line with mplayer. The mplayerplug-in just calls mplayer with some specific options which you can see if you list all processes (ps aux) while the video is trying to play. Once you have the URL, trying to play it from the command line with mplayer will show you any problems it finds. It may help to run mplayer in verbose mode (-v). One of the most common problems is the cache size setting. Also, if you right-click on the mplayerplug-in window itself, you might check the settings under "Configure". Here's a CNN video you can try from today's Shuttle launch: mplayer -cache 512 mms://wmscnn.stream.aol.com.edgestreams.net/cnn/tech/2006/09/09/vo.shuttle.launch.nasa.ws.wmv --Kenny
invoking mplayer separately as you told works but browser embedeed mplayer cannot play. I checked the cache setting in browser embedded mplayer and its 512 by default. So I guess it has nothing to do with cache. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
