[Bug 1069635] Re: chromium browser can not load plugin

 

This bug was fixed in the package gecko-mediaplayer - 1.0.8-4ubuntu1

---------------
gecko-mediaplayer (1.0.8-4ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian testing, remaining ubuntu changes:
    - debian/rules: Drop --with-xulrunner-sdk flag, it's empty and cause FTBFS.
    - debian/control: Build depend on libnspr4-dev
    - debian/patches/0002-require-nspr.patch:
      firefox-dev now only provides npapi headers so require nspr to build

gecko-mediaplayer (1.0.8-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/functable-check.patch: Actually check the correct function
    table. This should now cover all cases correctly.

gecko-mediaplayer (1.0.8-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/functable-check.patch: Fix function table check. This
    improves the compatibility with browser other than iceweasel and with
    older versions of iceweasel if built against a newer one. (LP: #870115,
    #1069635)

gecko-mediaplayer (1.0.8-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Upload to unstable.
  * debian/install: Don't install obsolete gconf2 scheme.

Title:
  chromium browser can not load plugin

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

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.
