Or is there a way around this obstacle?? You could install mplayer + mplayer plugin for mozilla/firefox or the plugin along with any other player based on mplayer, like kmediaplayer. Personally, I prefer kaffeine+kaffeine plugin, because I like better to watch the clip on a separate, redimensionable window rather than embedded in the web page. Such sites often offer clips in real player format, which is available for Linux as well. []'s Marcelo
