I don't think so. I used wget to get the file containing the links as follows:

Very good. If you can grep it for URLs and just send me that I can get to work.

 By the way, we have just recently automated the process of keeping our
 not-compatible list of websites, you are welcome to take a look on the list
 and submit other sites as well. http://mozilla.org.il/evangel.shtml


I have written to most of the sites on that list, although some of
them one cannot write to without access to Windows! I have asked for
write permission to that page in the past as I have some URLS to add.

No, all I'm getting is a 0 length blank file. Maybe your IP address

 Here is one of them:

Thanks, I was able to play it with the latest VLC Trunk.

Mako.co.il crashing Firefox?

2009-03-05 Thread Dotan Cohen
Arutz 2's Mako website has a WMP video player. I wrote to them to tell
them that I cannot see video in Linux, but when I send the form it
crashes Firefox. Can someone confirm? Thanks.

I'm on Firefox 3.0.6 on Kubuntu 8.04 with KDE 4.5.10.

You might be interested to know that even as their website is not compatible
with Firefox, you can watch the video without any problem under Linux using
the following greasemonkey script -
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/36207

Tip: You don't even need to play it embedded. When you load a page and the
script is loaded, you'll get direct link to the video inside Firefox error
console.

Thanks, Tomer, but I really don't want to install greasemonkey. I
tried going through the HTML to get to the link to the video, as VLC
can play WMP streams, however I cannot find it. I've gotten two
advertisements to play in VLC, but no video!

Same as you, I don't have any media player plugin installed on my browser,
but thanks to that script I am getting the links to appear on the error
console. And if this is not enough for you, you can always install the
MediaPlayerConnectivity addon  and get direct links to the embedded video(s)
in the sidebar (but you'll still need the script above in order to make mako
site compatible with Firefox).

Here is your link. Enjoy.

I am right now working on aggregating result from Firefox users survey we
ran back in December (I've done only about 15% of the data for this
question), and I must tell you - not-compatible video sites is the #1
reported reason of reported sites.
