I was so excited when I realized VLC Player can play .MOV files and even has a Firefox plugin that plays them, because I've had problems with QuickTime crashing Firefox, and I just plain don't like the QuickTime player.
Here's the deal: I installed the most recent version of the VLC player, and told it to install the Mozilla Firefox plugin, AND make it the default player for .MOV files. Well, .MOV files play fine through VLC on my PC's local folders, but in Firefox I get notified that I need the QuickTime plugin to play the video files when i browse to a page with a .MOV file.
I checked about:plugins and the VLC plugin IS installed. It seems though, in my Firefox file preferences VLC is set to play .MPG files, but not MOVs. Since there seems to be no way to "add" another file preference, how can I get Firefox to use VLC to play .MOVs? Take a look:
-Thanks for your help.
