Re: [Mplayerplug-in-devel] video stream not playing

[Kevin D. <kde...@ya...>]

I was able to watch the "Bird Flu" story on the site. 

Obvious questions:
1. Do you have mplayer 0.91 or higher installed?
2. Do you have all the optional codecs installed?
3. Do you see the mplayerplug-in logo? or did it show something else?
4. Did it say "playing mms:// something"
5. from the command line does this command work? (enter it one one line)

mplayer 
mms://ctvbroadcast.ctv.ca/video/2004/02/07/ctvvideologger1_143kbps_2004_02_07_1076172998.wmv
