What's New
- March 22, 2008
Version 1.10.2 makes it possible to overlay play/pause/stop buttons over video players such as MPlayer by using the "controls" flag together with the "$window" macro. It also fixes a minor memory leak which happened when mozplugger.so was unloaded by the browser. - January 6, 2008
Fixed a memory corruption bug in mozplugger-helper which was introduced in version 1.10.0. - January 4, 2008
Released version 1.10.0 which adds support for streaming asx files with mplayer and fixes a bug which was causing certain applications to not be resized correctly. It also fixes a race condition and uses less memory.
MozPlugger is maintained by Louis Bavoil and Peter Leese. Louis Bavoil started MozPlugger as a branch out of Plugger 4.0 in February 2003. For an introduction to plugger see http://fredrik.hubbe.net/plugger.html. Peter Leese joined the development team in November 2007.
The goal of the project is to provide a minimalist, clean and stable general purpose Mozilla plugin module that allows the user to embed and launch their favourite application to handle the various different types of media found on the Internet.
Notes:
- You may need to delete your local $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat file for mozplugger to be enabled correctly after you update it. (It will get regenerated). See this bug report for more information.
- To add more helpers, edit /etc/mozpluggerrc. The window name can be obtained using the utility xprop(1x). Type "xprop WM_CLASS" and click on a window.
- Mozplugger requires m4 to parse its configuration file.
