I reset the download actions to their defaults, but gxine still tries to run the video URL and fails (no codex). What do you have under: ~/.firefox/plugins/ or ~/.mozilla/plugins/ This is mine: $ ls -la .mozilla/plugins/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 michael users 112 Jan 8 2006 . drwxr-xr-x 6 michael users 176 Dec 27 2008 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 michael users 29 Mar 26 2006 gxineplugin.so -> /usr/lib/gxine/gxineplugin.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 michael users 44 Mar 26 2006 libnpsoplugin.so -> /usr/lib/openoffice/program/libnpsoplugin.so When I disable the 'gxine starter plugin' under Tools/Addons/Plugins then all I get is a blank page. In the page about:plugins, gxineplugin is above gecko-mediaplayer-qt and I suspect this is why it is being picked up first. What's it like in yours? -- Regards, Mick
