Yes.
To be frank, I suspect that my real problem is I have *too many* plugins
and they're probably clashing with each other (even though some are
currently disabled). This is basically a result of a lack of clear
guidelines as to what is a recommended setup, plus that fact that so
many of the various tools (xine, mplayer, vlc etc.) have overlapping
funcionality. Sometimes freedom of choice is a pain in the neck :-)
I can't express how deeply I don't care about which video player I use.
If I can get one of them to do everything reliably, I'll stick to it and
dump the rest, but I suspect that isn't possible.
I'm happy to be proved wrong ...

I believe that gecko-mediaplayer is the replacement (on Livna at least)
for mplayerplug-in.
Also with mplayer from livna...something not fixed...you must comment
out the line in /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf...
#flip-hebrew = no
otherwise, it won't run
