[FONT=&quot]Multimedia in web browser[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]By: craigevil [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]First make sure your browser is updated. The current version of Iceweasel is 15.0.1. You can install it either from the mozilla.debian.net repo if you run Squeeze/Stable or from Experimental if you are running Wheezy/testing or sid.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Flash Player - Debian Wiki - http://wiki.debian.org/FlashPlayer[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]For flash either install flashplugin-nonfree from the normal Debian repos or flashplayer-mozilla from deb-multimedia.org repo.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Remove gnash if you have it installed.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Code: Select all apt-get purge gnash[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Java - Debian Wiki - http://wiki.debian.org/Java[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]For Java I suggest Openjdk which works well:[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Code: Select all Cmd (apt-get install openjdk-6-jre)[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]and the browser plugin, on Debian Stable you want icedtea6-plugin[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]on Wheezy/Testing and unstable/sid you want icedtea-6-plugin[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]For other browser plugins install one of the following:[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (gecko-mediaplayer) - Multimedia plug-in for Gecko browsers[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (browser-plugin-vlc) - multimedia plugin for web browsers based on VLC[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (totem-mozilla) - Totem Mozilla plugin[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (xine-plugin )- xine-based media player plugin for Mozilla browsers[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]You also need the app that the plugin uses, in most cases installing the plugin will also install the app.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Other plugins:[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (mozplugger) - Plugin allowing external viewers to be launched inside Mozilla[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (mozilla-acroread )- Adobe Acrobat(R) Reader plugin for mozilla / konqueror[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (konq-plugins) - plugins for Konqueror, the KDE file/web/document browser[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (konqueror-nsplugins) - Netscape plugin support for Konqueror[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cmd (kpartsplugin) – Netscape-compatible plugin to embed KDE file-viewers into browser[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Various keyrings which are only needed if you use that repo/architecture:[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]deb-multimedia-keyring - GnuPG archive key of the deb-multimedia repository[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]pkg-mozilla-archive-keyring - GnuPG archive keys for the Debian Mozilla team package repository[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]debian-archive-keyring - GnuPG archive keys of the Debian archive[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]debian-edu-archive-keyring - GnuPG archive keys of the Debian Edu archive[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]debian-keyring - GnuPG keys of Debian Developers[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]debian-ports-archive-keyring - GnuPG archive keys of the debian-ports archive[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]emdebian-archive-keyring - GnuPG archive keys for the emdebian repository[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]For various ways to install Oracle Java see:[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Howto install Oracle Java on Debian[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/blog/craigevil-176422/howto-install-oracle-java-on-debian-34567/[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]MultimediaCodecs - Debian Wiki - http://wiki.debian.org/MultimediaCodecs?action=show&redirect=DebianMultimedia%2FMultimediaCodecs[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I would suggest closing your browser then before restarting it, delete the pluginreg.dat[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]and mimeTypes.rdf in your Iceweasel/Firefox profile located in .mozilla. Please note that this will reset your plugin and application settings in Iceweasel/Firefox.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]The above will allow your browser to play pretty much any online media. Other than a few of the sites that use proprietary media players like some of the news sites, I can't remember the last time I ran into anything online I couldn't play in Firefox.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0.1[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Plugins[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] DivX Browser Plug-In[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] Java(TM) Plug-in 1.7.0_07[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] KParts Plugin[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] mplayerplug-in is now gecko-mediaplayer 1.0.6[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] QuickTime Plug-in 7.6.9[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] RealPlayer 9[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] Shockwave Flash[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] Windows Media Player Plug-in[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Note that the above plugins are provided by only 4 packages:[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Flashplayer-mozilla, gecko-media player, Oracle Java 7 , and since I run KDE the kpartsplugin[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Feel free to use whichever package manager you prefer to install the packages you need/want.[/FONT]
