That is in the FFMPEG package. OTHO, do you want to play a video that is embedded in the Flash player (e.g. UTube) in MPlayer. I haven't tried that but IIUC, it is a matter of configuration of MPlayer. -- James Tyrer Linux (mostly) From Scratch ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.

You shouldn't have had an unknown MIME type for the file. Does the file have the extension: "swf"? If not, what is the extension? The correct MIME type for "*.swf" is "application/x-shockwave-flash" If you have MUNGed that, you should open the Konqueror KDM ("Settings -> Configure Konqueror" in Konqueror) and go to the "File Associations" section and fix it. > IIUC What is that? If I Understand Correctly. There is a dictionary for these somewhere on the web; try Google. > Understand that mplayer needs configuration the Question is HOW Short answer is: "/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf", but the question is what to add to that file. Have you tried the MPlayer Dox or Google? -- James Tyrer Linux (mostly) From Scratch ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.

If it's an .swf file, it's not* Flash video. Flash video files have an *.flv extension. What does the "file" utility say about the file? "Macromedia Flash data, version N" means it's not video. "Macromedia Flash Video" means it is. ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list. Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde.
