BBC flash videos don't play in Firefox (Youtube videos do, and all is fine in Chrome)
- by Cocoro Cara
Ubuntu 10.10, 32 bit. Firefox 3.6.14
Why don't BBC videos play in Firefox if Youtube has no problem? Moreover videos play fine in Chrome. Another strange thing: there seem to be two flashplugins in about:plugins
File: libflashplayer.so Version:
Shockwave Flash 10.1 r102
File: libflashplayer.so Version:
Shockwave Flash 10.2 r152
But there is only one flashplugin in the plugins directory: /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/flashplugin-alternative.so - /etc/alternatives/firefox-flashplugin
$ update-alternatives --list firefox-flashplugin /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so
Any ideas?
