I guess I forgot to announce my conclusion. I concluded that the
mozilla-mplayer is the best one for us at this time, because it
- embed video playing
- support most (all except one which can be fixed by fixing RTSP to
use TCP instead of UDP) test sites listed on the wiki
- include video controls (pause, full screen, seek, etc)
None of the other reasonable alternatives seem to provide all
these. :(
It is now installed by default on the Lenny desktop and should be
working for most sites. Please update
<URL: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/BrowserMultimedia > if you find
a non-flash based video site that isn't working.
Happy hacking,
