Greetings all;
I can see that its installed and should be calling kaffeine to service a
quite wide range of video formats.
YoutTube goes with flashplayer:

Unfortunately, while kaffeine is installed and runs
for other digital
than tv broadcast, neither firefox is actually calling it. So while I
can see videos, some on cnn, and some on nbc news in firefox's postcard
sized video, nothing that I have been able to add, will call up kaffeine
to play a youtube video. If I launch a copy and have it running, it
seems to me that firefox should pass the data stream to the running copy
of kaffeine.
write in your url: about:plugins and check the output
But its not happening, no reaction from kaffeine can
be obtained from
either version of firefox.
So I installed the gxine launcher plugin. Looks like an identical list of
acceptable video formats to that of kaffeine.
Perhaps because kaffeine uses the same xine software?
Is there an about:config option to be set so this
works? What else do I
need to check?
Tools -> AddOns -> Plugins
you can manage whatever you have installed
