Using Downloadhelper with Firefox I end up with .flv files.
On this box MPlayer and VLC plays them fine. I don't even have
gmplayer installed, so can't comment on that. However, I can
change those file extensions to .wmv and play them, also.
Perhaps showing you output will help:

I'm using Slackware-12.1, custom 2.6.26 kernel, KDE 3.5.9, MPlayer 1.0rc2
and VLC 0.8.6h. Hope this helps ... try it via CLI, and if you have a
problem, at least you'll have some output to show what is wrong. You
might not have ffmpeg installed to play the flash video. |
