I sometimes run into problems with videos - some formats require a plugin

Install the mplayer plugin : http://tinyurl.com/5on28s

Yesterday, I sent an email to the US Arizona Senate site for live public
viewing of proceedings. There videos are all in a format specific to
Windows. I specifically told them that using a proprietary format was
discriminatory and they had to switch to a non-proprietary format such as
flash to properly serve the public. No reply from them yet.

I thought that flash was proprietary. The fact that the specifications
are available does not realy change that.
