The Mozilla plugin for Windows Media Player will not allow me to access streaming video whereas both Internet Explorer and Google Chrome will.

I cannot get the videos I've created to stream with the Mozilla browser. I have no problems with either Internet Explorer or Google Chrome and both will automatically stream my video files. I have had to install the Mozilla Plug in and I still had to wait a long time for the video file to download. Then I followed Hostgator's support advice which is on this Url http://support.hostgator.com/articles/hosting-guide/publish-your-site/how-do-i-set-up-streaming-video-or-music
Nothing seems to be working which is a shame as I like Mozilla's browser the best and want to offer my video so that it will stream to all my users. Thanks in advance.

  • Plugin for Windows Media Player is not working with Firefox 4 on Windows 7

    I updated my Firefox to the latest version 4 yesterday, but since this time seems plugin for Windows Media Player not working anymore. When I visit some website with embedded video - like [http://www.ta3.com/sk/live this] - the window with WMP is not displayed and no video is playing. The website reports: You don´t have any plugin for playing of this video.
    I reinstalled the plugin for WMP several times - with no success. This problem is on all webpages with embedded video for WMP. The installation of WMP plugin is successfully finished, but no video is playing. I checked the “plugins“ folder in the installation directory of Firefox and everything seems to be OK. Where is also the problem? Please, help me with solving of this problem...
    My operating system: Windows 7 (64-bit)

    I just saw this posted to the mozilla.support.firefox newsgroup in the topic,<br>
    [http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.support.firefox/browse_thread/thread/f381fb349c4d109d/69bef0011240e600?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8 Windows Media Player will not install in Firefox 4] <br>
    ''Just for the record, the extension that conflicted with Windows Media Player is named: Real Player Browser Record Plug-In 14.0.2''
    <br>..... so try [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] to see if a Firefox extension is conflicting with the WMP Firefox plugin.

  • What is the PROPER plugin for Windows Media Player 12 - Prompt leads to WMP 11

    Is the plugin for WMP 11 the proper plugin for the WMP 12 64 bit system?
    Is this WMP 11 plugin the version of the plugin itself or for WMP Version 11?
    One web cam I tried to view said it needed this plugin, it wouldn't download; said to do it manually. When I tried it listed the Windows systems w/bit system information and Windows XP SP2 (x86)
    Windows XP SP2 (x64)
    Windows Vista (x86)
    Windows Vista (x64)
    There is nothing offered for Windows 7 at all, much less for this 64 bit system as it does for the two above systems. This is very unclear, and with so many problems posted all over the Internet.... and having lost graphic card ability and later memory burn out on last computer due to this same issue in Vista, I would really appreciate the proper plugin information relating to this issue so I can safely use my computer.
    Who creates the plugins?T Firefox or Microsoft? How can this problem go on for so many years unresolved? Thanks for your insight.

    You need a 32 bit Windows Media Player and a 32 bit plugin for it.<br />
    I don't think that the WMP plugin will work with a 64 bit WMP version.<br />
    Firefox is 32 bit as well.
    The WMP plugin that you found works with WMP 12.

  • Is there a plugin for windows media player for my android phone

    is there a plugin for windows media player for my android phone

    There is no Windows Media player plugin for any browser on Android. If you are lucky download the file and see if any of media players on the system can play the file.

  • Firefox will no longer play videos and keeps telling me to download the latest version of Adobe Flashplayer which I have done 5 times but still get the same message when I try to play videos. I can play videos on Internet Explorer and Google Chrome .

    Recently when I try to play a video on Firefox I get the same message that I need to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. At least 5 times I have downloaded Adobe Flash Player 11 Active X and Adobe Flash Player Plugin 64 bit. Problem is that even though I have the latest version I still get the same message when I try to watch videos on Firefox. The frustrating thing is I can watch videos on Internet Explorer and Google Chrome as well as on Safari. How does that make sense?
    Today, I upgraded to Firefox 10.0.2 (x86eng-us) hoping that would enable me to watch video on Firefox but it made no difference either. I would rather use Firefox as my default browser but if I can't get help so I can view video on it I will be forced to use another browser.

    Hi arpriltime,
    Have you looked at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-crashes-or-flash-plugin-crashes Flash plugin troubleshooting section]? There is a lot of useful information in there that should help you get to the bottom of your issue.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Flash Player Freezing and Crashing Internet explorer and Google Chrome

    Hello,
         I have a dell xps 16 running on i7, windows 7 home premium 64 bit, 4gb ram, 500gb hdd. For at least a year i have been having problems viewing sites that use flash player such as youtube, and facebook. I orginally thought my anti virus was the problem because when ever I uninstalled it the flash began to work. I switched anti-virus programs about 3 times go from mcafee to kaspersky to avg 9.0 full...and it still would freeze up on me. Now it  has been 2 weeks since I uninstalled avg 9.0 and now it has started freezing up my internet explorer and chrome when ever i go to youtube or facebook. Also for some strange reasion it also is making some of my programs like pinnacle studios 14, itunes, and window media player unresponsive. Currently I have taken flash out of my computer. And i have to use my ipad to view youtube videos..but i still can not view flash. I have heard this has happended to many people on mulitple o.s. , Please help. I have tried reinstalling it and it says that instalation failed evertime. Ive also tried reinstalling my os with no success. I ve tried reseting my browsers and reinstalling them....no success.

    Hi a, I wonder what happened since it was working on 7/21/10. Then after you Installed AVG9 you started having problems, even after disabling the AVG add ons, etc.
    You have had this freezing issue for awhile and I don't know what is causing it, although cleaning up McAfee certainly helped and the Re-Install of Flash Player.
    I think the first thing you should do is go to the Kaspersky website and find out if there is an Uninstaller to use and use it if there is. Then I would go to AVG 9 and do the same. Then Reboot after using each one. That way you will have had a Clean Uninstall of both of them.
    Then go to Microsoft and Install Windows Defender. That way you would have some protection and that along with the Windows Firewall will help until we see what is causing this freezing and then you can Install AVG again.
    Also these: Dellweb cam central, informational alerts, dell data safe online, oovoo, fastaccess.. I wonder if any or a combination are conflicting. Have you had these for sometime or were any added about the time you started having issues? I am not familiar with them, but if they are in your system tray, I would guess they use Flash? I would try to disable them all at once, try your websites, especially youtube. If you have no problem, enable only one of those and test youtube again. Then enable another one and so on and if any are conflicting, you will be able to find the one.
    Thanks

  • How do I find plugin for Windows Media Player in MacPro

    In my previous PowerBook G4 I have been able to access TV newscasts from Europe, in streaming video, especially from Channel France 2. To do this, I have used Microsoft's Windows Media Player 9 for MacOS X, which comes with an asx plugin and it works fine. When I installed WMP in my new MacPro, the plugin was not installed. I queried Microsoft on how to solve this problem and I was informed that Microsoft no longer supports WMP 9 for the Mac and has no plans to upgrade it. Consequently, my alternative could be found in Windows Media Player components for Quicktime by Flip4Mac. This plugin allows you to play Windows Media Player files in the Quiktime player directly. I went to the FlipMac web site and downloaded it only to discover that the existing version will work only for G4s, not Intel Duo Macs.
    Microsoft's media player 9 for the Mac is being used internationally for streaming video.
    Does anyone know of an alternative plugin that would work and where do I find it?

    Your solution makes sense. But when I downloaded and installed VLC Media Player for Macintosh, I found that one needs to have a developer's experience to figure out how to make it work. It isn't as simple as Windows Media Player 9 which works easily after you determine Preferences. Video streaming from news outlets is instant. Instructions from videolan on how to use its media player are confusing. Is there a simple way or easy steps to set up VLC to play streaming video from network news outlets with player embedded in their web site? That's all I am interested in. Your thoughts will be much appreciated.

  • PlugIns for Windows Media Player

    I have run across this many times and I don't understand what this means and how to correct it. When using the Windows Media Player 9 (for OSX) and I go to various webcams, I get a message that states...
    "This page has content of MIME type “video/x-ms-asf-plugin”. Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed."
    What does one do to correct this? Help.

    Microsoft no longer support Windows Media Player for Mac. it's an end-of-life product.

  • DRM for Windows Media Player on the ipod

    My ipod is worthless, if it can't play files with DRM for Windows Media Player. My library, that offers this files for download says, it would cost 50.000 dollars to provide also ipod-compatible files. Because they can't spend this money, I will need a new mp3-player!

    The specs for the iPod (box, website) are pretty clear about what formats it supports. Unfortunately, protected WMA files are not supported.
    If the rights you have for those files includes burning them to an audio CD, you might want to do that.

  • EXPORT LONG FILES IN 1080p for Windows Media Player

    Hello, need some help in exporting and encoding some large files from Premiere CS6.
    We have 4 Sequences, each totalling 45minutes in length and in 1080p (ProRes422).
    We need to export and encode for Windows Media Player as quickly as possible.
    Looks like each export is going to take over an hour from Premiere as "Match Sequence Settings"
    -keep in mind there is NO AUDIO.
    Once it's out of Premiere as an MPEG, I can transcode to any format. Ultimately WMV would be optimal,
    but we need to transcode the MPEG into a MOV file before 'Episode' will accept it, just to make the WMV files.
    Target files: (4) 1080p Windows Media Player compatible files
    Does anyone have a better workflow workaround? Midnight hour and need help!
    Thanks in advance,
    Dan

    Thanks Jim, I can't export to WMV out of Premiere or Media Encoder. I use Episode to make my WMV files, and since Episode doesn't take MPEG in from Premiere (sigh)
    I have to first make them in Quicktimes..
    But yes! Anything Windows Media Player can handle... should I just go with the 5GB MPG files? No way for me to test, I'm on a Mac and these are playing on a PC
    thanks for your help

    You are going to need to have two versions of the video file. One for Mac Quicktime users and one for WIndows Media Player users.
    WMV Studio Pro looks like it could meet your needs.

    However you will need a Windows Media Server to stream the WMV file otherwise it will act as a download only.

  • Downloading plug-ins for windows media player

    i'm a brand new mac user -- bought a macbook less than 24 hours ago. i have not been able to trouble shoot installing plug-ins for windows media player. if anyone can advise, i would be most appreciative.

    Windows Media Player for Mac was discontinued more than a year ago by Microsoft. They recommend using the free Flip4Mac player <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/otherproducts/otherproducts.aspx?pid=windowsmedia >.
    A good addition to your arsenal of media players would also be the stand-alone VLC Media Player <http://www.videolan.org/vlc/>. It's a Swiss Army Knife of media players.
    Hope this helps!

  • While installing a program (MediaCenter.exe) to handle audiobooks from the library, I erroneously associated the download site with Windows Media Player instead of the actual application (NetLibrary Media Center). How can I reverse/change this?

    While installing a program (MediaCenter.exe) to handle audiobooks from the library, I erroneously associated the download site with Windows Media Player instead of the actual application (NetLibrary Media Center). How can I reverse/change this? Reinstalling the application does not clear the error, so I'm assuming the association is somewhere in Firefox.

    Never mind -- I just found it under Tools/Options.../Applications, where I changed the incorrect association of "nlmcp" from Windows Media Player to the correct one, NetLibrary Media Center. Done!
