TICKET ARCHIVE -> mime application plug ins

jogordo - Jan 21, 2008 - 7:03 pm

Hi,
I have a mac os x version 10.4.11 and am trying to watch some videos which require mime plug ins which I don't have.
How can I get the plug ins?

here is a copy and paste of the message:

The page “Show Viedeo” has content of MIME type “application/x-mplayer2”. Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed.

sorry, but the system screen wouldn't let me enter any more info- 1.9 ghz power pc g5, 512 mb
Thanks, jo

You can get that plugin by downloading and installing Flip4Mac.

flip4Mac installs a variety of plugins, and the x-mplayer2 is one of them.

thanks, i did that last night, but the download seems to be inactivated?
i still can't see the video, and when i put wmv on the dashboard and try to open it nothing happens, and the little arrow underneath to show it's operating doesn't appear.
any ideas here?
thank you
