Using konqueror 3.1.4. Installed mplayer 1.0pre2 and mplayerplug-in 1.0pre2. Every time I try to open a page containing a movie file, mplayerplug-in loads correctly, prints some message (the URL it tries to play), begins to play, then freezes. Konqueror is still functionnal, but when I quit the page it pops a Kcrash window saying taht nspluginviewer has died. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to any page containing media video. 2.Try to play any movie trailer or any video. 3.mplayer starts then freezes. Actual Results: Mplayer freezes. But browser still functionnal (tried with konqueror 3.1.4 and Mozilla 1.4).

Problem solved for me. After compiling Kernel 2.6.0-test10 with OSS-support in it, mplayerplug-in stopped crashing on me.
