Recommended Posts

I have visited a forum or website and got this message..

additional plugins are required to play media on this page. click here to install plugins..

So i do and it says it cant find any plug ins but an unknown plug in is available and can be downloaded manually. So i've tried and tried but cant seem to get this to work. Below is what i got when trying to copy the said link. This was a post on another forum of someones friend.ie it should be a picture.

<object id="MediaPlayer1" width=320 height=296

codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701"

<param name="FileName" value="http://www.Google.com.info/Streaming/PICT0519.AVI">'>http://www.Google.com.info/Streaming/PICT0519.AVI">

<param name="ShowStatusBar" value="True">

<param name="DefaultFrame" value="mainFrame">

<embed type="application/x-mplayer2"

pluginspage = "http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/"

To answer my own question.. yes it does..

When I have had this problem before I just reinstalled WMP and then it worked. Possibly something to do with the way firefox detects WMP.. :o

So my advice - reinstall Windows Media Player.. :D

totster :D

Drastic... but it did work for me when I had this same problem.. :D And it still works fine now, not had to reinstall since.. I'm sure that it's because Firefox can't detect WMP unless it's installed after firefox is installed.

You know i cant do that. But also on this Radio station i get the same thing.

http://www.srhdev.co.uk/dynamicstreams/med...2&playertype=wm

ie. additional plug ins required. I think its got something to do with Windows media player.

I can hear it fine! (Even though the site says "Currently Under Maintenance - estimated down time 30 minutes").

You need to download whatever plug-in is missing. Usually a line appears at the top of the Firefox page and you have to click on it to install the plug-in.

Excellent! They're now playing Suspicious Minds by Elvis - very appropriate for the TG/F :o

I know this but when i click on download plug in. I get unknown plugin. Download manually. Then its takes me to WMP website. I've reinstalled it but havenet retsarted my PC. Will check again tomorrow.

I used Firefox before, but it has sometimes problems with Java pages and encryption. Cannot access my online banking for instance.

Now I'm using Opera and no problems so far. Just stay away from IE....
