probably won't work in konqueror since it uses GTK2

I did test in firefox! My post said, I thought, it
plays in every browser except Mozilla. The error
message only happens in Mozilla browser.

Sorry, but other lists sent me here. Are you setting
up too fine a distinction just because I mentioned
mplayerplug-in in my post. The error message was about
mplayer2. I'm no linux expert and can use some real
help on this issue as it a long standing one. I
shouldn't have to revert to WXP just to play embedded
videos and didn't in the past with mplayer. I will
post on mplayerplug-in if I have to, but surely this
list can offer some help based on the error message. I
would appreciate any follow up comments. Thanks so
much.
