Mozilla just crashes, firefox shows the "plugin-window" and does nothing. I never used the option "without-gui" btw. > I just installed it and it doesn't really work for me (opens a new > window iso playing in the designated space, probably because I didn't > compile mplayer using WITHOUT_GUI), but doesn't crash anything either. > I tried the apple movie trailers. Yeah, only difference it that when I try to open an movie trailer, mozilla coredumps and firefox stops with a blank plugin-window. Hope that somebody knows how to solve this. I liked mplayerplug-in very much. It seems the only way to have some multimedia with mozilla/firefox.
