The video has a "ad overlay" (can skip after a few seconds), video itself plays fine here. Note that I'm providing you this reference from the past: I'm using Opera with the Linux Flash plugin (installed as described in the handbook), and the versions are opera-11.50, opera-linuxplugins-11.50, and linux-f10-flashplugin-10.3r183.5, installed in summer 2011. So I haven't changed things, and it still works, because the rule is: Never touch a running system. ;-) > Other types play just fine, like "Pt1gard's 10-Question Apollo Test" > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUPtiYiMCbQ Yes, plays fine. > I can work around this by downloading the files with clive and watching > with mplayer, but I'd like to make this work again. If it's just about YouTube video, why not use youtube-dl and mplayer? I haven't tested it for those particular two videos, but it tends to work for everything. :-) I cannot provide a reference regarding Firefox (with "Flash" installed as described in the Handbook) because it freezes mny system (faulty GPU). -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
