Salvatore,

Mattfly says that gecko-mediaplayer works for him. I'm wondering if the
actual content is limited to specific ip addresses like for only people
in or around Italy. I'm in the US and this would not be the first time I
have seen a site restrict content by location. I believe the BBC site
does it as well.

gecko-mediaplayer has an ASX parser which is something that
mplayerplug-in does not have. So that might be a reason why it works
better.

Kevin
