I am still running version 2.80 of the mplayerplug-in and it works just fine. Though I must admit that I had the same problem as Mark at the beginning. It came from the default video driver used by mplayer/mplayerplug-in which wasn't compatible with my video card. I had to edit the ~/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf file: vo=xv ao=alsa osdlevel=1 I hope that it helps. -- Nicolas Litchinko -- [email protected] mailing list
