Guest Juda Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 Thank you, I thought I had them installed. Forgive me of my stupidity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illogic-al Posted February 1, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2003 It works! It works with konqueror now (knew it was only a matter of time). Somehow those fine lads and lasses at kde central have found a way to make it (the mplayer-plugin) work with konqueror. I'm using kde 3.1 btw (mandrake cooker rpms, use at your own risk).

Guest maddys_daddy Posted February 15, 2003 Report Share Posted February 15, 2003 Got it working in Mozilla 1.2(tex) :D but not in Konqueror. I've done a plugin search through Konq, and Konq finds the plugin, but it won't work. Howdja do it? :? THX! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illogic-al Posted February 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2003 k0nqueror for kde 3.1. There's also a new plugin which they say works with konqueror (i guess 3.0.x version). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramsret Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 Great work, I'm sure. But damn! I'm "smarter" than 95 percent of computer users out there, I've been with Linux for over a year, I want NOTHING MORE than for Windows to go away in favor of Linux. But Linux WILL NEVER GET MINDSHARE when you have to have an engineering degree to install a media player. Period. Let me know when there's a "click the file and it installs" version. Or even a normal RPM or tarball install. :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beesea Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 Let me know when there's a "click the file and it installs" version. Or even a normal RPM or tarball install. plf's mplayer rpms worked just fine for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illogic-al Posted April 4, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2003 plf does it all now! they have the new mplayer rpms rc5, all the plugins AND an mplayerplugin rpm is in contrib. It doesn't get easier than this folks. get your quicktime fix TODAY ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illogic-al Posted April 4, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2003 i see no point for this. first of all as far as i know crossover plugin doesn't even work with 9.1 because of glibc reasons and secondly crossover plugin isn't free. If you're talking about using it with that annoying banner that pops up every ten seconds that not a better alternative either. Let's now combine that with the fact that wine apps are every bit as stable as their windows counterparts and we haev yet another vote over crossover. The fact that quicktime works way better now than it ever did on windows (for me) is even more reason to use mplayer and NOT crossover. The fact that all this is now in rpm format now makes kramset's argues invalid (which is why i posted this, you out there still kramset :)) and your comments unneccesary. the mplayer plugin is miles ahead of crossover's AND it free. Didn't mean for this to sound like an attack on you but i'm just trying to discourage anyone out there who'd be incline to use substandard software when something better is being offered. That only leads to more of kramset's linux isn't ready for the desktop arguments and ... well i'll end my rant now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phunni Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 fantastic - used the plf RPMs and it worked brilliantly (after changing my plf mirror - giggled.org always delivered corrupted files). Watched a film trailer in Galeon. Now - two questions: 1) Is there any way to improve performance? 2) how do I get rid of that annoying timer display at the top?
