I've tried entering some sites with embedded Video in them and they showed the
"Download Plugin" symbol but the plug-in wasn't there. Note that with IE and NS4
I can see those videos. I thought I needed to install the WM plugin and tried to
copy the NP-something something files from my Netscape Dir (which also were in
the WMP dir). This didn't work (still "Download Plugin"). So I deleted those
files, now when I get into a site with embedded video (Like the one I wrote
above), it simply doesn't show anything, not a WMP and not a picture as if it
wasn't there (It is in the Page Source). I tried copying the WMP files again
(the NP...) and now it shows a big gap as if the file was there but it shows
nothing and acts like a big SPACE. I also found that the file MIME type wasn't
in the "Helper Programs" like it was in the Netscape. I also tried to manually
insert one but it did not work.
I don't know if this a bug in mozilla or is it me that done something wrong.

Reproducible: Didn't try
wfm with Linux 2001082708. I get prompted to download a plugin.

yup ,wfm 2
Those who see it working: what plugin do you use for this application/x-mplayer2
type?
Reporter, the big blank space you see is the area occupied by the plugin (which
is npdsplay.dll -- a bridge to MediaPlayer. The MediaPlayer currently has
compatibility issues (LiveConnect) and doesn't work. We have a bug on this.
Shrirang, I think this can be resolved as a dup.
