Jon,

Ok I made some changes for the GTK1 code in CVS to make sure the widgets ar=
e=20
realized prior to calling gtk_widget_set_events on them. Does not seem to=20
matter in GTK2, but maybe GTK1 needs them. I don't have a working GTK1=20
browser anymore. I'll have to try mozilla from the official site.

As a side note using firefox 1.06 with mplayerplug-in CVS that site works. =
But=20
you have to click the "Play" button to get things to go. When it first load=
s,=20
I think a flash item grabs the audio out and so mplayer can't play.=20

The changes are committed, I'm not sure when they will be available for=20
anonymous users.

I am testing with Mozilla 1.7.11 GTK1 and the current CVS and I don't have =
any=20
problems with the plugin.=20

I can play the site http://www.klemfm.no/ but due to the dumb ads on the pa=
ge,=20
mplayer can't start right away.. It takes a minute or so for the audio to=20
start (basically when the next song starts)

Hi Kevin,

Thanks a lot! I will test with current CVS and Mozilla 1.8b1 ASAP.
(Had intended to do that today, but other things came up.)
If that doesn't work, I will try Mozilla 1.7.11 myself. If that
in turn _does_ work, I will report the problem to the Mozilla
developers as a probable bug in 1.8b1. Either way, I will post
my conclusion to this list.

And yes, I too have to wait for the music due to stupid ads. But
what can you expect, the music is free to us, most likely paid
for by the ads.... Music is rarely "Open Source" ;-)


Cheers,
