Firefox plugin on Debian

[alrama]

Problem with VLC Mozilla plugin on Firefox 1.5 in Debian Sarge. Installed release 0.8.1 of vlc, wxvlc and mozilla-plugin; then tested below test page with Mozilla and Firefox 1.0 from standard Debian packages, runs fine. Firefox 1.5 installed from tar ball in custom folder, stop responding on this page, with black box "no picture", no control links showed and status bar keeps show "trasferring data from ..." .

I miss something ? any suggestion ?
Consider that: about:plugins says vlc plugin is ok. Enabling verbose log (2) VLC preference, and run firefox from terminal says only: "adding ... to playlist"

USED TEST PAGE
<embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin"
name="video1"
autoplay="no" loop="no" width="400" height="300"
target="http://somepathoto.mpg" />
<br />
<a href="javascript:;" onclick='document.video1.play()'>Play video1</a>
<a href="javascript:;" onclick='document.video1.pause()'>Pause video1</a>
<a href="javascript:;" onclick='document.video1.stop()'>Stop video1</a>
<a href="javascript:;" onclick='document.video1.fullscreen()'>Fullscreen</a>

Hi,

Many thanks for a great software VideoLan-team!

I use Fedora 4 and I upgraded to firefox 2.0. I got VLC working after I
cp /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libvlcplugin.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libvlcplugin.so

Today I threw out my B/W cam and would like someone to verify that you can access the stream via firefox http://213.250.83.83/~patrik/test_stream_to_wan.html

or point the media player at http://213.250.83.83:1234

I opened TCP/UDP:1234 on my router, but not sure if the Fedora firewall is correct....

Thanks,
Patrik
