It didn't work for me.

I gave gnome-mplayer a shot and was delighted that it did not require
large chunks of gnome which I don't have.
Used xulrunner from blfs-dev = firefox-3.6.source.tar.bz2
gnome-mplayer plays those problem urls ok, e.g.:
gnome-mplayer 
mms://a1686.l9789245685.c97892.g.lm.akamaistream.net/D/1686/97892/v0001/reflector:45685
(That's one that xine won't play)

gecko-mplayer does not complain, but produces no video
about:plugins shows Gecko Media Player 0.9.9.2 with many plugins

I didn't know that.

Y'all must know how to make a magic system that makes gecko-mplayer
work, and I don't :(

gnome-mplayer http://fredrik.hubbe.net/plugger/test.mov
works fine, but that url in firefox just says "done"

It would be easy if gecko-mplayer would work for me, but I don't know
how (after 3 days of effort.)
