Can somebody please test KDE's media support on this link?

Those of you running KDE and using Konqueror, please check this out:

http://fredrik.hubbe.net/plugger/test.html

On my system,  all the available test movies fail to play via the Konqueror's built-in plugin (which uses Kaboodle to play stuff). Kaboodle's panel does appear, but displays 00:00/00:00 for time/length, and just stays blank.

So, how many of you does that happen to? Can you recognize any conditions that might be responsible for it?

I tested the link with konqueror (which i rarely use) and on my pc kaffeine played several of them without problems.

I know Kaffiene works, my problem is with Konqueror's own multimedia plugin, which is completely different.

I tried now (I have mplayer - kmplayer) and mpeg and fli start but for avi and quictime kmplayer does appear but movies (look) are too long or what because downloading and downloading and didn't start. I will try again in the evening.

I also know that KMPlayer works... Could someone please confirm this for *Konqueror's built-in plugin*? This is not an issue with any other multimedia plugin.

If you can tell me how to switch between multimedia plugins I will test the page as well.

Try moving your Mozilla plugins somewhere else, e.g. /root. I think that should work.
