Hi Rick
I've just tried www.cnn.com 
It does come up with a message but I just said Continue and clip played
OK

It uses  mplayerplug-in

rpm -qa|grep -i mplayer
mplayerplug-in-3.25-1.lvn5.i386
mplayer-skins-1.4-1.lvn5.noarch
mplayer-1.0-0.39.20060412.lvn5.i386
mplayer-fonts-1.1-3.lvn5.noarch
mplayer-gui-1.0-0.39.20060412.lvn5.i386
