latest mplayer v1.0rc2 on my pc. Both of them work fine while access
http://www.quicktime.com/trailers. My PC is Ubuntu7.0.4 with
firefox2.0.0.16. However I have two questions on mplayer plugin
regarding youtube support.
| (1) As you might know, videos from m.youtube.com are based on rtsp
protocol. However mplayer plugin I installed cannot support rtsp
playback from the website. I can only enable rtsp playback using mplayer
by following instructions from the document "RTSP issues in firefox".
Can mplayer plugin also support rtsp playback online? How to do if it can?
| (2) Videos from http://www.youtbue.com can be played correctly using
plugins from flash player 9. However mplayer can also correctly playback
local flv files. So can mplayer plugin support flv playback from website
http://www.youtbue.com which is similar to flash player? How to do if it
can?

| Thanks,

Laifa,

mplayerplug-in itself cannot support the videos from youtube. However
there are a couple of tools that can be obtained that convert the
youtube videos into something that mplayerplug-in can support. Look for
the pcom extension or a website that converts youtube into AVI or
similar files.
