After installing mplayerplug-in-3.01-1.fc4.i386.rpm AND deleting the

I have not been able to do this though on www.foxnews.com. I'm wondering
if anyone can, and if so, what you're doing differently than I am.



I've installed it on two machines, now, and foxnews video plays fine. CNN is based on Windows Media. FoxNews video is Macromedia's Flash Player. Do you have Flash Player installed? One thing I did notice on Fox is that the audio lags the video - since it's Fox, that's lawful <g> --


Thanks Claude. Yes, I do have Flash installed:

[root@moe ~]# rpm -qa | grep flash
mozilla-flash-7.0.25-1.2.fc4.rf
flash-plugin-7.0.25-1

I've run 'setup' and it appears successful:

[root@moe ~]# /usr/lib/flash-plugin/setup

Registering flashplayer as a XPCOM component in
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.10

Registering flashplayer as a XPCOM component in
/usr/lib/firefox-1.0.6
Setup is complete.


Still no videos from www.foxnews.com though.
