268865 - Call up of Mediaplayer is restricted to Version 9.0 although 10 is on PC

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 264645

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Joseph A. Smith]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0

On this page there is link to video, which gives error message that Mediaplayer
9.0 not found, although 10.0 is present. That this link works I know because IE
and Avant have no problems. Apparently Firefox searches only for 9.0 version.

Reproducible: Always

This is not an accessibility bug. Check out the component descriptions (under
the "Component" link) when filing a bug. Accessibility is for usability by
persons with disabilities. See http://www.mozilla.org/access for more info.

AFAIS if the detection of WMP fails this page shows always 9.0 not found.
