mplayer-plugin for mozilla firefox on mac osx


To whom it may concern,

Does anyone know how to install or build the mplayer-plugin files for mozilla firefox on mac osx? Or is there a site that already has it built? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a intel macbook pro with leopard on it. Also I cannot login as root on the terminal while I am the normal user.

Why do you even want to do this in the first place? Quicktime with Perian codecs pack handles almost all file formats. Regardless, I doubt mplayerplug-in would work with the Mac-native version of Firefox. If you really want to do this, install MacPorts. Then, install Mozilla Firefox and mplayerplug-in via MacPorts. You will need XQuartz and Xcode to do this.
