Best darn Firefox extension in existance, IMHO! > Ric I was able to install the mplayerplug-in and I installed a bunch of codecs on my Dell Inspiron 2200 notebook running FC4. I can now view .wmv on cnn.com, audio files on npr.org without any problems (also from a terminal shell) thanks to the help on this list. I did the same installs on my AMD 64-bit Athlon system running FC5 but only the audio plays on the video clips on cnn.com. Is it possible to view .wmv videos on a 64-bit system? Rick B.
