Hi James,
One really good place to check you plug-ins is:
www.junglewalk.com
Loads of different video and sound about various
creatures. My kids love it...okay, I LOVE IT :))
Generally I can get all media working on the sites
you mention, with the exception of MSN. I'm
running Dapper 6.06.
My settings for Mplayer are:
Nothing in 'Video Output' and 'Audio Output'
a cache size of 512
and I have 'RealMedia Support', 'Helix Emulation',
'Play media directly...', Connect to RTSP...' and
Use HTTP...' all unticked.
Hope this helps.
I'm happy to look at the config files of anything
else that you're interested in.
Weirdly, I reinstalled 6.06 on my desktop machine
recently and have it on my laptop. I cannot access
video at: www.smh.com.au on my desktop reinstall,
but can with my laptop. Dunno what the problem is.
Regards,
Patrick

Hi
has anybody made the multimedia video work?
BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk [works - mplayer 'open in a standalone
player]
NASA http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/highlights/index.html [stays blank]
NINEMSN http://ninemsn.com.au/ [FOS in the extreeme! but if your
browser report IE on Xp then mplayer plugin accepts but streams not]
NEWYORKTIMES http://video.on.nytimes.com/ [perfect]
Trying this on feisty with mplayer-plugins about:plugins shows realplayer and
windows media (totem) but the whole area is still
really not working for me
James
