The player shows fine using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100611 Firefox/3.6.4 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) on the same machine, so this is a trunk only issue.

In that Range Bug 531142 is given. Thus this could be an OOPP issue and it's WFM on 1.9.2 because the Real Plugin isn't whitelisted there, no?

The real Player Live connect plugin is still reported to have problems under FX5, as well. Seen in bug 667399.

A comment has been posted for my bug 667399 report suggesting that bug 667399 may be a new bug and not identical to bug 572801 reported here. My only concern is to get the reported problem fixed as soon as possible for Firefox 5 and also hopefully for Firefox 4, since some still use 4.
