|
I had a little problem with my mplayer, mplayerplug-in and firefox installation...
I use the following versions:
| Code: | net-www/mplayerplug-in-0.91
media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre4-r7 live network
media-plugins/live-2004.03.27 |
but i get allways 404 errors on each stream (i.e. apple.com/trailers)
| Code: | Server returned 404: Not Found
Unable to open URL: http://movies.apple.com/movies/warner_independent/around_the_bend/around_the_bend_m240.mov.
MMX2 supported but disabled
3DNowExt supported but disabled
Server returned 404: Not Found
Unable to open URL: http://movies.apple.com/movies/warner_independent/around_the_bend/around_the_bend_m240.mov.. |
I tried also the masked version of mplayer and live - but same error message... any suggestions about this?? |

I have found that when updates are made to the streaming systems, older versions of the mplayerplug-in no longer work. This being the case, I have chosen to use the latest version of the mplayerplug-in because 0.91 no longer worked to stream content from sites like apple.com/trailers/
By default, it is masked. I unmasked it in my overlay directory (there are other ways to install masked software, but this is the method that I use) and then updated the software:
| Code: | # etcat -v mplayerplug-in
[ Results for search key : mplayerplug-in ]
[ Candidate applications found : 8 ]
Only printing found installed programs.
* net-www/mplayerplug-in :
[ ] 0.91 (0)
[M~ ] 0.95 (0)
[M~ ] 1.0_pre2 (0)
[M~ ] 1.0 (0)
[M~ ] 1.2 (0)
[M~ ] 2.11 (0)
[M~ ] 2.60 (0)
[ I] 2.66 (0) OVERLAY
