VLC 1.1.4 doesn't run with fench Orange WebTV devcie
Mandriva-Linux all versions Firefox versions 3.6 to beta 4.x VLC 1.1.2 and 1.1.4 (was working with 1.0.6 and previous)
Involved Mozilla VLC-Plugin in Firefox.
Since 1.1.2 and now 1.1.4, VLC doesn't open at all, when requested by (french) orange webTV device, on Firefox (all versions).
The "Orange" device, when playing on Firefox, isn't capable of opening/locating at all VLC!
I have noticed than, in fact, installing the VLC-plugin on the system, doesn't modify the file called "pluginreg.dat" in /home//.mozilla/firefox/.default/
The path is then, impossible to be located by the device. The message issued by the device is : "Plugin : appplication/x-vlc-plugin) is unknown"
To reproduce just try (with Firefox) to play the TV device "WebTV" on "Orange.fr" french site, but you must be customer of Orange ADSL-TV and be registered on the site...
Anyway, finding why the installation of the plugin (mozilla-plugin-vlc) doesn't write/modify the path in the file "pluginreg.dat" will solutionate.
