Well blow me away!!! This actually worked! No circling dots! I tried a few other videos. Some apparently are barred from being played from the filesystem. Some, for some reason, brought up my Chromium browser...!?!?! One, I think stopped, after a bit (I think that was when the first browser window popped up - both Chromium invocations were merely "New Tab" - no actual page attempted.) For a laugh, try gnash -v -M gst 'http://www.youtube.com/v/523uxFMUTGA?version=2' ...this brought up two separate Chromium windows... weird. [I attach the output from this, in case you can figure out what's up with the browser. Oh! I see where it happened (if not why...) In my text editor, where I pasted the output, I can see two instances of "Created new window in existing browser session." (although there WAS no existing browser session for Chromium, just Firefox - FF was part of the install pkg for Lubuntu 13.10, so I had to install Chromium (which USED to be a Lubuntu default), so maybe when I installed Chromium, it was made the "default browser"...)] Anyway, I will try altering the config file and see if gnash works in the browser as well. I'll keep you posted. -Scott
