Hi Jonathan,
Nope.
I *had* been using the Plugger plug-in (fredrik.hubbe.net/plugger.html).
Based on your question, I tried the mplayer plugin from sourceforge and
now everything works fine. In addition, the mplayer plugin seems to
coexist with plugger (for managing other utilities).
Thanks for that tip!
Also, FYI, I did build mplayer from the source following the url on your
earlier post. That went smoothly but didn't fix the problem. The newly
build mplayer plug in works with both the new build and the unoffocial
debian packages from nerim.net.
