Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.3 i686; en-US; rv:0.8.1+) Gecko/20010419

The Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language
(http://globecom.net/ietf/draft/draft-hoschka-smil-media-type-02.html) is used
for, uh, something involving multimedia. Its mimetype is application/smil.  It
is supported by netscape 4.x, but currently mozilla wants to launch an external
viewer.  it should be renderred in mozilla.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  go to www.ifilm.com
2.  pick a movie, any movie.
3.  select "realplayer" for the viewer and click ok

Actual Results:  mozilla wants to save the result as a file

Expected Results:  it should render the page, like ns4.x does

reporter: i don't think nc4 natively supported it, i suspect a realplayer 
plugin added inline support. please run about:plugins in both nc4 and moz, and 
report what plugins are handling the mime type in nc4/moz as well as whether 
they are present in both apps.

realplay is working under both moz and ns4.  I get the same output for both
about:plugins pages.  audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin is the only mimetype they they
are handling.

It would be nice to have support for X*ML+SMIL like IE does.
