OpenSUSE :: KDE And Firefox Do Not Play Well Together
Jan 15, 2011
I keep running into a problem with KDE crashing when using the search bar in Firefox.
For some unknown reason, something gets set in the Firefox profile that will cause KDE to crash when a few chars are typed into the search bar in Firefox's upper right corner. When this situation occurs, I can log on to Gnome, and use the search bar with no problem. This is something related to KDE only.
The temporary solution is to delete my Firefox profile. This fixes the problem initially, but returns after a few weeks of web browsing. Deleting my browser profile every two weeks is NOT much fun!
Firefox level is 3.6.13. KDE is 4.4.4. Suse is 11.3. I do NOT have Moonlight installed.

Firefox keeps crashing when I try to play video. It used to crash when I used old version 3.0 and it still crashes now in the 3.5 version.
It doesn't seem to have been a hard drive problem..I have enough space and memory.
With regard to addons, I have java and shockwave flash...and an addon for weather....though i have noticed it used to crash before I had installed any of those..

I need to play or preferably convert (i.e. to MP3) old SNG files, which contain voice records. From what I could find, it's basically a MIDI created by synthetiser. I think it was recorded by some ancient VLC player. I failed so far to play it on anything I could download.

I changed the backend of phonon from xine to gstreamer because I wasn't able to play .avi files with xine. I installed libxine1, and libxine1-codecs, but Kaffeine, Dragon Player and Gwenview crashed when trying to play an avi file. After changing the backend I was able to play .avi files, but now I can't play DVD's, which I'm able to do switching back to the xine backend.
how to play dvd's with the gstreamer backend

How do you get firefox to play wmv files? Everytime I load the video, it shows the controls and everything but it doesn't load the video itself. When I hit play, nothing happens.
I'm using FF 3.5.9, Ubuntu Karmic

My Firefox has stopped playing video, including from ...... It just shows a big image of the "play" button in the space. Moreover, in some other news sites with .flv videos it simply does not play. All I can see is the play/pause button and the volume control flickering. My understanding is that this happened after the latest system update. I would also like to know if there is a download helper extension for Chrome equivalent to the one available for Firefox that enables download of video files.

I'm an excited newcomer in ubuntu and i'm also an animator. and i have problem playing all streaming video from this particular website (the 11 second club), probably they use quicktime plugin or something. In addition, we can play the stream frame by frame so we can check the animation more details on poses.
could you guys help me out with this...? this website is an important learning centre for me, and definitely for many animators out there who use ubuntu.
here's an example:

A week ago I used Update Manager to update Xubuntu from 8 to 10.04. Update manager completed properly. However audio stopped working in firefox but video worked ok. Using other audio players like banshee worked fine. Worse, Firefox ran slow as molasses. I tried re-installing (using Synaptic Package Manager) the Adobe Flash Plug-in in Firefox. No change. I tried re-installing Firefox. No change. Yesterday I used update manager and got about 40 updates, including updates to firefox and linux. After these updates, Firefox sped up nicely but now the video and audio are both blocked.
Update: subsequently I abandoned Xubuntu and installed Ubuntu 10.10. Adobe Flash is properly installed and audio works fine in the audio player and video player but not in Firefox. Tried installing Chromium and Midori and each browser has same problem - no audio. My sound icon is properly set to output connector -> analogue output. The version of firefox is 3.8, and that version works fine in Windows.

I have Fedora 11 and I cannot play a windows media stream in Firefox. E.g. http://www.rogersplus.ca/movie.asp?mid=35147# from this site I cannot view trailers in Windows Media Format but I can using Real Player. When I select Windows Media Stream, all I see is a black window in place of video.
I have installed following plugins in Firefox, DivX Browser Plug-in (Geko Media Player 0.9.8), MozPlugger 1.12.1, gecko-mediaplayer 0.9.8, VLC Multimedia Plug-in 1.0.3.

Thus far I have had no luck. I have installed Namoroka from the ppa repo and got flash working nicely but java is another matter. I followed instructions to install the jre manually but no matter what I do it will not display in FF's "aboutlugins". I have to ask if Namoroka is using the default folder: /home/username/.mozilla/plugins/? Because that is where I created the symlink to the java plugin.

I'm within Firefox and start playing ..... movies Firefox crashes. Thats not the worst of it however; the process locks up the whole system and I have to reboot. I attempt the kill it with now luck. Killing the PPID doesn't help because it got to 1. I even looked a pstree to kill parent processes without any luck. I'm like WTF. Firefox crushes with the "ZL" in the line when running the ps command also. I'm going to uninstall Adobe flash and reinstall it to see if that helps at all. This is the only time I have every had this type of issue.

on almost every website i've tried with streaming media the media will not play. i don't know if this is something to do with the proxy server i have to use or a lack of plug-ins on firefox or something else entirely. (they're not blocked i can get them on a windows pc on the same network) [url] this one i can play from the command line with mpalyer but in a browser i get 'waiting for video' and the status bar says 'done' [url] this one i have control of the player buttons but it just says 'buffering' and the status bar says 'done'

on these two i have control of the player but the status bar says 'transfering data' then 'done and nothing plays [url] this one plays! why's it different? videos plays. bbc iplayer crashes firefox. $ uname -a linux seven 2.6.31-20-generic #58-ubuntu smp fri mar 12 05:23:09 utc 2010 i686 gnu/linux $ firefox -v mozilla firefox 3.5.9, copyright (c) 1998 - 2010 mozilla.org

I'm trying to play a video across the network (watch the "Live View" of a Network Camera) using my Linux/Ubuntu 10.10 Laptop. The video plays fine from Windows and Mac using any browser with Quicktime plugin. My Linux/Ubuntu seems to have a Quicktime plugin called Totem, which shows up in Plug-ins tab as QuickTime Plug-in 7.6.6 Totem 2.32.0 (using GStreamer 0.10.30) When Firefox tries to open the videostream using Totem, no video is played just there's an unfunctioning play button and a blank video screen. My own suggestion to this problem is to use another side application such as VLC player inside Firefox. But it seems VLC is unusable in this case because the network video's requires HTTP authentication and I cannot enter that authentication info from VLC itself.
