    I can't play certain movies in firefox, they should play with media player (I have 11 installed) but I get a message saying plug-in not available, I cannot download the specific plug-in, which is coming up as x-mplayer2. I have tried going to options and associating the files with media player or quicktime, but with no success. An example of one of the movies in question is:

    Can anyone offer some help?

    It plays with FireFox on Ubuntu - so it's codecs all right
    "Movie Player using xine-lib version 1.1.2"

    File is a wmv - so Media Player should play it

    VLC plays it too BTW ;)
