Description
MPlayer 1.0rc2-4.3.0 (Fedora packaged)
Fedora 9
All binary win32 codecs from mplayerhq.hu
mplayerplug-in 3.40-1.fc7
Firefox 3.0.2
Perhaps the embedded stream at the indicated example URL is malformed somehow, in which case I'd greatly appreciate to learn what to tell the publishers of the video so they can fix it.
When trying to play the embedded stream in Firefox with mplayerplug-in, the plug-in loads and I get the message "Connecting to server qstream-wm.qbrick.com", plus a continuously changing IP address. Nothing else happens.
I copied the direct URL of the stream using a right-click in the plugin space, and ran mplayer on that URL in a terminal:
$ mplayer http://qstream-wm.qbrick.com/05076/sveriges_afrikanska_krig_080911_s00_p00_webspecial.wmv?MSWMExt=.asf
