F17: KDE Desktop: Firefox does not play embeded movies

[kiragon]

Hello,

check if you can play a movie clip here: http://www.gamespot.com/mass-effect-...ect-3-6364776/

That appears to be flash related.

Do you have the flash plugin?

[kiragon]

the flash plugin 11.1 r102 is installed and enabled.

When disabled, firefox notifies that flash plugin is required to display that clip

It appears that firefox under GNOME Desktop has the same issue.

You could reenable you the testing repo in your software sources applet, then do a yum update to get the new totem and totem-mozplugin. This will remove the "vegas" plugin that is now with totem-mozplugin. Then you will be able to use flash.

update from the testing repo worked.

Thank you.
