Nope, it can't be missing codecs because I have 100% success with
"gmplayer $URL" in a terminal. It's a buggy interaction between the
browser and the plugin. I'll try it but the mplayer plugin
doesn't work
reliably for me either.
About 75% of the time it buffers then just sits
there with a grey box
and never plays. Occasionally it works if I hit
"play" but most of the
time I have to resort to right clicking and "copy
URL", then run
"gmplayer $URL" in a terminal which works *every
time*.
It looks like you're lacking some MPlayer codecs. Care
to share one URL that does not work with it? I have
near 100% success with MPlayer plug-in.
