I'm currently playing webcasts from Mozilla using the xine plugin.

The trick is to get gxine, not the default xine player. This package
contains the Mozilla plugin you need. Then you just symlink it to
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, restart your browser and you're good to go.

[florin@xxxxxxxxx florin]$ ls -l /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/*xine*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           29 Jun  3 00:30
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/gxineplugin.so -> /usr/lib/gxine/gxineplugin.so

On Red Hat 9, i recommend to use the xine/gxine packages provided by
Freshrpms:

Of course, you still need xine-lib, since both xine and gxine are really
just front-ends to it.
