Does any one have a recommendation on the best version / repository of VLC and the Firefox Plugin for RHEL 6.2 / 64 bit. A good working Firefox VLC plug-in is key.
Thanks,
Chuck

I removed 2.0.3 from ATrpms and installed from RPMfusion:

npapi-vlc-2.0.0-1.el6 (x86_64)
vlc-core-2.0.3-1.el6 (x86_64)
vlc-extras-2.0.3-1.el6 (x86_64)
vlc-2.03-1.el6 (x86_64)

Does anyone have the npapi plugin working with VLC 2.03 on RHEL 6 / Fedora, or should I try an older version.
thanks,
Chuck

I can make it as my time permit.
But there will be a need to have discipline with the version for firefox been used, It may not work on firefox 3.6 is the standard version in RHEL is firefox 10.x
