I understand the frustration. I had similar issues with MPlayer and followed the suggestions in this thread. The good news is I eventually did get Mplayer Plug-in to work, but I still can't get Totem to work with Firefox playing mms:// types. I get an error saying there is no URI handler for the mms:// protocol. I don't know if I can switch to MPlayer. This is a real pain... Hopefully it's documented somewhere Cheers, Chris -- ====================== "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." -- Albert Einstein
