As I mentioned, I think in my case it's a configuration issue (PEBKAC). For example: the wmv on this site: http://www.ifactorystream.eu/wmtest.html Played fine in Chromium. But in FF, SM, and Opera I only got a black window. I then reinstalled an mplayer package (again linux), reloaded FF and SM, and now the video plays just fine in FF, SM, and Opera. So, were I you I'd go looking for similar streams as you were viewing on the NASA site and see if perhaps the issue is a plugin (installed or lack thereof). _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
