HI to all and particular thanks to Amadeus W. M. for your patience and direction on the codec files and other bits and pieces.. Well - I found success to my problem which simply was the installation of a file called "mediaplayerconnectivity" found in Mozilla>tools>extensions. I search for and installed that file and BINGO!! The video stuff now works perfectly through Mozzila. And everything still works fine in Konqueror as well. So that is it. I will send another note to the 'list' as well, detailing this find.. Thanks again.. On Sun, 2006-12-10 at 23:14 +0000, Amadeus W.
