Re: [Mplayerplug-in-devel] Release 0.91

[Robert S. <rse...@au...>]

Seems to work rather well. I did run into a small issue

It deals with the play list at cnn.com

There are 3 streams. The cnn corporate logo flyby, the actual stream,
and some comercial for thier pay service.
The last two streams are played out of order. In other words the
actual video clip is not played until the very end. This behaviour
seems new in this version of the plugin.

All of the other sites I've tried work perfectly. In all a very good
release.
