What version of mplayerplug-in are you using? I tried 3.30 and had to go back to 3.25 because 3.30 didn't work.

I have 3.30 installed but it doesn't work on my system either. I'm going to try going back to 3.25 when I get home tonight ... thanks

Same here. Version 3.30 does not work for me, either. I went back to 3.25 and it works perfectly.

mplayerplug-in 3.30 will probably work on your machine if you add the following to ~/.mplayer/config

nortc=1
nolirc=1

There is a bug in mplayerplug-in that is worked around by setting those two options. This will be fixed in the next release.
