[solved] Mplayer and firefox

[massctrl]

Hi

I'm trying to find out how to open mpeg, avi's, from websites, the way windows media player does.

I've installed mplayer and mplayerplug-in which is working well. I found that when the noembed=1 parameter is set the movie is played in a seperate window, that's more or less the way i want it. But i rather would like that mplayer is opened is its full glory.

I hope i'm clear enough

Cheers

You mean you want gmplayer to open in it's full glory? mplayer is a command line tool.

You can probably do this by removing mplayerplug-in and then specifying that .avi .mpg etc files are always opened with /usr/bin/gmplayer

Hehe yeah that's it,

I've been unable to add certain filetypes in firefox but apparently they were allready associated with the 'filetypes and programs"

Cheers problem solved
