Firefox & RealPlayer

kmars · 08-18-2006, 07:28 AM

I am using Ubuntu 6.06 with firefox 1.5.03.

I have loaded Realplaye10GOLD 10.0.8 but cannot play from Firefox i.e. BBC radio player.

I have followed the instructions for loading the .deb package and realplayer is streaming ok but no sound. Video works ok

Any answers?

Cheers....... Ken

Welcome to LQ.

Are you using oss or alsa?

Try starting firefox with:
aoss firefox
