Now for everyone's information, I removed nspluginwrapper from my installed base of RPMs, using my particular package manager, which happens to be Smart. Then I reloaded Firefox and went back to that page I built, with the embedded video from Fox News Channel. And this time, it played. Chris, may I suggest that the problem is a bit wider than the 64-bit version. The 32-bit version does the same. My plugins were all using "nswrapper-32-32." Now, without nspluginwrapper, they're all back to their native .so files. So: /all/ version of nspluginwrapper cause problems for videos called with certain scripts. You can't even get the embedding code with nspluginwrapper in place.
