I have little problem....

when i try playing vids' in firefox with windows media format embedded players, i just get a blank black picture.

for example >>>HERE<<< (http://yes.walla.co.il/?w=1/8061/1311334)

the most annoying thing is that it works fine on another ubuntu box that i have. it doesn't play embedded but i can right click the vid and play it in an external player.

i have all necessary GStreamer packages installed
i got totem, mplayer, vlc, realplayer and quicktime plugins installed.

in firefox preferences > applications, i got windows media audio\video using windows media player plugin

oh.. and i also tried installing greasemonkey but that didn't help either...

and I'm with Ubuntu Hardy x86 and firefox 3
