Ubuntu :: Firefox 4 - Watch Videos - Windows Theme
Mar 30, 2011
Downloaded FF4. For my purposes it doesn't seem that much different from FF3. I was able to watch videos on a news website that I hadn't been able to with FF3! On FF3, with the windows theme I have, there is a nice blue tint on the top of the tab, but not on FF4.
yesterday the update manager asked to install some updates. i accepted (as usual). today i found that i couldn't watch videos on videos or some flash content.
here is a copy of the history of installations code...
I installed "flash-plugin-10.0.32.18-release.i386.rpm" manually to my system in order to let firefox enable watching animated images and video ,but even though firefox still not able to do so. I'm running RHEl 5.
I've got an eeepc 1101ha and have installed the latest ubuntu, 10.10, but i can't watch any videos! Besides the original player, i have installed and tried to watch videos in VLC, SMPlayer and GNOME MPlayer but it has always some kind of error. In VLC I can hear the sound. On all others the file simply doesn't work.
it seems i have to update to a new flash version? i cannot watch any videos any more. i installed the flash-aid add-on in firefox. under "removal options" i see nothing until i select "expert mode". i have attached a screenshot. what do i need to select there and what are the next steps? i just upgraded to firefox 4.0, on kubuntu10.10.
I cannot see any avi videos with vlc I can just hear the sound of them but, the odd part is that with totem I can see them perfectly. Can any one explain me what I am doing wrong? I got Debian Lenny Stable with Xfce4 Desktop enviroment. I tried to install ubuntu restricted extras and also I tried to install the following codecs:
yesterday i upgraded my ubuntu to 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx, and today i faced with a problem watching videos on the Internet. i already tried reinstalling the Adobe Flash Player i have in many ways... nothing helped and i actually think it isn't even related to the flash player... what can it be, and how can it be fixed?
I'm new to linux, When i try to watch videos on you tube, or anywhere, sometimes they don't work. Or they are real choppy. It certainly didn't do that when i was running windows, I know its not the internet speed.
I am using Lenny i386 and amd64, have installed flash 10 from abode but cannot watch TED videos. They are working though with other resent distros like mint, mepis, community remix F12,1. Does anybody know what codecs are needed to enable their playback? Unfortunately I could not find anything relative by searching under TED in this forum.
I've installed fedora 7 and i'm having difficulties watching videos through my media player provided and on the internet. Should I use adobe flash or something else. When I had fedora 13 there were difficulties downloading adobe flash.
I have got a new computer today, It's got most new parts in it but I installed all diffrent types of flashplayers, SMF players all that and I still can't play flash or watch videos.
I am running 10.04 on an old computer. I can watch netflix videos, but there is no sound. I tested the speakers on another computer and they work. That leaves either the sound card, or something about 10.04. How do I debug this?
Is there a default media player in linux such as windows media/ if so what is the name of it or can i download one that works with linux, i would like for the player to not only play music but watch videos as well.
I am trying to use the s video port on my presario 2800t to watch videos on my tv. I have plugged the S Video cable into the back of an RF box. So how do I get the computer to send a video signal through the s video port?
Is it normal that you can't watch YouTube videos after a fresh install? It comes with something called GNU Gnash but it doesn't work at all in Iceweasel.
I have installed flashplayer to my fedora and tried to watch videos which need flashplayer but it wont start. Its seems like my system have installed flashplayer but can't find plugin from mozilla. Tried to check if plugin exists but no. Tried to install it again but no.. same problem again.
Lately (in the past couple of weeks) my system has been hanging, particularly when I try to watch videos. I'm not sure why this is happening, but when I looked through my system log files I found what's on the attached file. A couple of other programs that I use frequently (xmms2d and epiphany) have similar entries, and I assumed they are related because they are typically running when the slowdowns occur. Also, my /home partition is giving some errors which may or may not be related.
I love Ubuntu so much but when my previous graphic card passed away a technicien installed on my desktop an Ati Radeon 9550, my question is what I have to do to watch smooth videos in streaming?
I have been using Fedora for a while now. When I try to watch movies or videos on the internet or offline a error message like the following: What should I do?
I've been trying to find a way to watch videos from my main desktop computer on another computer I've plugged into an HDTV. I'm such a Linux newbie that I decided to give Mythbuntu a try. It was way to complicated for what I needed, and I'm sure that some more experienced people reading my first two sentences laughed to themselves at my naivety.
What I am trying to find is simple: browsing one computer's home folder from another computer, and playing the videos therein. If there's anything like Mythvideo that requires less than half of the skill requirements, I will telepathically send love to the person that informs me of it.
I searched and found threads recommending mozilla-mplayer plugin in the synaptic packet thingymejig. Couldn't find it there myself and although I found a mplayer plugin in the other Ubuntu software library installation program, it didn't allow me to install it (there wasn't an install button!).
So is there a recommended way of getting Firefox to show mms streams?
There is a live internet streaming cast that runs on Friday's. I can't watch it using firefox. so I have to reboot into windows, use ie to view it. I want to be able to view it while using firefox via ubuntu.
I can't see any video on Flickr (but I see ..... videos...)My browser is Firefox 1.0 / Namoroka version 3.6.3preI updated the Flashplayer with no results.
I've always wanted to give Linux a go, so I decided to try out Ubuntu, but before I can I need to ask some questions. 1. When doing partitions to run something like Windows 7 and Ubuntu ((I'm going to be using Ubuntu when I'm not playing games.)) can I choose to only give it afew gigs of hard drive space, well, probably like 20-50?
2. Is there a way to take music/videos I've downloaded on Windows and watch them on the Ubuntu Partition? If so, how?
3. Using Wubi is the 'Installation size' option how much space you're giving to the Ubuntu partition or will I need to download/burn the .iso file to a cd/dvd to do that?
Firefox started acting funny.On most video sites, but not all, there wouldbe no sound.Along with this, some of these sites would also have the glitch that videos would play for about 3 seconds, then stop. If I moved the slider to a different point in the video, it would again work for a few seconds, then stop. If I close FF and try to reopen, I get an error message that it is already running, although if I don't leave it openet that message.I then go to the system monitor and shut down the sleeping FF process, and can then restart FF and the problem is fixed for a few hours.
Since I installed Lucid, anytime I watch a video in Firefox I can't adjust the volume. I click on the little volume icon, and the volume meter pops up, but it won't let me change it.Also, I can't change to a different point in the video.And finally, it won't go full screen when I click on the fullscreen button.
