Media Players

Postby jbaerbock on Fri Oct 12, 2007 5:00 am

Well I got most of my media working on VLC. And was wondering since I have VLC can I get rid of mplayer and movie player safetly? Or can I at least get rid of one of them? Otherwise I have 3 media players which seems cluttered.

Hi

You need Mplayer to watch the embedded video in Firefox.

If you search around I think there is a way to embed VLC in Firefox

Why complain?, you only get Windows Media Player In M$ :) :)
