OK, go to this link and tell me that mplayer works:

If you can make it play, tell me how you did it.

It plays for me, but that's not mplayer, it's flash

I have flash player and it plays other Yahoo videos but this one will
not
play.

Even with the latest flash plug-in, I couldn't get this one to open
using Firefox. However, after re-scanning for plug-ins, I did manage
to
get further with Konqueror. With Firefox I received a "you don't
satisfy
our requirements" error in the player window. With Konqueror, I had
the
player load but was still unable to watch the video. In this case,
even
though I have the Mplayer plug-ins installed, it complained about a
missing wmp plug-in.


Well, like I say - wmp plays just fine. So does flash on my systems.

Can you play a video from YouTube? Here's one of mine:

I forgot - and lost the thread - what versions are you using? Are you
on 10.2? Firefox 2.0.0.x?
