I can't figure out what plug in a need to play streaming videos that are imbedded into many sites now days(youtube.com, ebaumsworld.com ect.) I got it to work wtih safari but with Firefox it always displays some green wrench or something to symbolize it won't play and when I hit "find plug ins" it just takes me to microsofts website.



I already have windows media player installed...whats the hold up?



I am running OSX(the latest version) on a MacBook.

    xvid plug ins for media player?



    list goes on, it may not be a firefox plug in.

    I have no idea. I believe they are windows media player formatted or something. Just most streaming videos in general that are embedded in a site I cannot watch. I figured this would be a common problem.



    Flash seems to run fine though...
