Even with the latest flash plug-in, I couldn't get this one to open
using Firefox. However, after re-scanning for plug-ins, I did manage to
get further with Konqueror. With Firefox I received a "you don't satisfy
our requirements" error in the player window. With Konqueror, I had the
player load but was still unable to watch the video. In this case, even
though I have the Mplayer plug-ins installed, it complained about a
missing wmp plug-in.
