Hi there,
OK I thought I had this problem solved last week. Last week with help from this list, we installed the flash player on my Centos 5 desktop machine.
But now when I go to cnbc, I am getting that same problem when trying to view vids on their site. So I click the icon where the empty video frame is to install the plugin, the "no suitable plugins were found" box come comes up again, so I click on the manual install button, and I am getting the "/tmp/adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch-2.rpm is already installed" box again.
On youtube however, or other sites, I can view vids, and I thought that the flash player was installed OK last week but some sites I still can't view videos.
Any ideas what I can do?
Thanks anyone.

Nope. But I just went to cnbc and viewed one of the clips NP. I guess I would first go into Firefox and check the plugins and see what shows there.
Mine shows Shockwave Flash 10.0 r12
Does your's show that? Do the commands below give similar results?
$ rpm -q flash-plugin flash-plugin-10.0.22.87-release.i386 $ rpm -q firefox firefox-3.0.7-1.el5.centos.i386
If not, I've got another thing I found out. Make sure Firefox is not set to check if it's the default browser and that it is *not* set to make itself the default browser. This wipes out the pluginreg.dat if it is set.
Thanks anyone.

I just went to cnbc.com and I clicked on the video at this URL: http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=1092331767&play=1 I can view it, without any problems. I am using CentOS 5.3 (32 bit), fully updated. <snip>

Yes. Follow the instructions on this page. I suspect there is something you need that is not installed. Possibly the good or the bad or the ugly packages.

Me, too, with CentOS 64-bit and nspluginwrapper.

Are you sure you're not confusing this with mplayer? I don't think the flash/swf player uses the gstreamer plugins....

Mark: I suspect she needs mplayer or the plug ins or something else she does not have installed. I hope if she follows the instructions on that page, she will get whatever it is she needs, in the process. Lanny
