Hi there,
I don't quite know how to say this technically, but here goes: having installed f18 x64, I thought I installed gnash in order to see streaming-video. Is there something I am missing besides this? When going to watch a video, the video says that it "couldn't find the plugin".
Any hints on this one? Should I bother the developers group? Are there any lines of code that I can include to show the problem?
Thanks for the help,
Richard

Start be saying what browser this is, and what version. Also, AFAIK gnash is for viewing Flash content. For other types of video you probably want other plugins.

I use both Firefox and Google Chrome; most of the time I use Chrome, however, neither play video. I'm not so internet savvy AFAIK.

There-s also a needed plugin I think called gstreamer-bad or such like Roger

Chrome tends to play most stuff out of the box (it has some built-in video decoders), so the problem may be elsewhere. Does no kind of video work, or only some? What sites don't work: Youtube? Apple? Vimeo? Some random page with embedded Flash? Try to be more specific and give examples of URLs that don't work.

Thanks gang:
I forgot about gstreamer. I think this may help.
The first site is Youtube, and the second one I tried because I need / want is the CBC.
Thanks again for the help!

I think I need something else than the gstreamer-bad; I'm not sure, but video isn't working yet.

OK... I think it should be assumed by those trying to help that they will need to tell you how to collect the information they need to help.
I'll stick to Chrome since that is the browser that I use and the site youtube.
In chrome enter at the URL chrome://plugins/ and hit return. You should get a list of plugins. Look for the block labeled "Adobe Flash Player". Chrome has flash "built in" in that the plugin is installed along with chrome. So, you should see....
Adobe Flash Player (2 files) - Version: 11.5.31.139 Shockwave Flash 11.5 r31 Name: Shockwave Flash Description: Shockwave Flash 11.5 r31 Version: 11.5.31.139 Location: /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so Type: PPAPI (out-of-process) Disable MIME types: MIME type Description File extensions application/x-shockwave-flash Shockwave Flash .swf application/futuresplash FutureSplash Player .spl
If you see the block gray and the word "Enable" instead of "Disable" it means your plugin is disabled. Click to enable.
Also, youtube allows you to select html5 for videos which Chrome does handle internally. To tell youtube to server up html5 you need to enable it by going to http://www.youtube.com/html5 and joining the HTML5 trial. Note that not all content will be HTML5, read the information at that URL.
Also, FWIW, make sure you chrome browser if fully updated. I had a problem with the internal flash player in chrome and had to disable it and use the plugin from Adobe. Version 24.0.1312.69 of Chrome is working fine for me.
