Problem with web video
I have been fighting a losing battle trying to get video to display with Firefox. I just updated to the latest version 5;however, it still does not work. This is on a FreeBSD-8.2 system. As an example, the following URL does not display the video or even the portion where one would usually click on to start the video. http://front.moveon.org/bill-maher-if-our-policy-is-yeehaw-jesus-takes-the-wheel-were-dead-already/ This site works fine with IE-9 Windows 7, so I know it does work. As far as I can tell, I have all of the required packages installed. -- Carmel ✌ carmel...@hotmail.com ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Adobe supports Windows, MacOSX, Linux, and Solaris (from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions ). If it is important to you that Flash works well, you should either persuade Adobe to provide a FreeBSD version, or you should switch to using one of the platforms on which Flash is supported.

Works here with FreeBSD 8.2, i386, FF5, Flash installed as per the Handbook. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/desktop-browsers.html#MOZ-FLASH-PLUGIN ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
