Title:
  chromium browser can not load plugin

Status in Chromium Browser:
  New
Status in “gecko-mediaplayer” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 12.10
  Chromium 22.0.1229.94 Ubuntu 12.10 (161065)
  Gecko-mediaplayer 1.0.6-1ubuntu2

  When attempting to play media files, chromium reports that can not load plugin (quicktime or windows media player).
  Example:1)  http://www.medienkunstnetz.de/works/intonarumori/video/1/
                   2) Local .mov videos in an android device

  Firefox plays these videos without a problem (using the same gecko-
  mediaplayer)

  Update
  Chrome browser (binary package google-chrome-stable_current_i386 22.0.1229.94 r 161065) has the same behaviour.

  Update 2
  It seems that the bug is in gecko-mediaplayer 1.0.6-1ubuntu2. I installed 1.0.4-2ubuntu1 and the problem disappeared.

  Update 3 :D 
  Although gecko-mediaplayer 1.0.4-2 works in most cases, gnome-mplayer fails to play some big .mov files. My solution so far is to roll back in gnome-mplayer 1.05-1 from precise. This combination works so far in all cases I tested it in.
