I unsuccessfully attempted to download Google Chrome Stable using Terminal but now the package installer windows are frozen on my screen & won't let me close them. I tried to download the new version & found out why it wouldn't work after reading this forum.

I found this string while searching for the reason why Adobe Flash Player wouldn't update on Firefox after encountering the pesky error message on You Tube about having an outdated version of Adobe Flash Player. My hard drive crashed on my laptop a few days ago so I just installed the latest version of Mint 17 on my new solid state drive using Unetbootin today.

I checked, and I like Google Chrome so it is installed, but I used the PPA to install this plugin and many other software applications. It can sometimes be difficult to know where or how all the various programs, and or program components, were installed on an operating system. If you use the PPA method to install this plugin, see below, then you get future updates. Apparently, if you install Google Chrome browser the plugin will be installed automatically?.
The "freshplayerplugin" description and installation instructions are in the link below with a quick excerpt on how to install it below that. I am sure to come across one before long and will post the link when it does. I am embarrassed by the fact that I have not come across an exemplary web site now that I have written. Mine is the same as yours, except for freshplayer plugin, which is not in synsaptic, so I can't install it, at least by that method. VLC is installed, and I have gone through the check-list you offered. With respect to phd21, I appreciate the informative post. Just to clarify, I have Linux Mint 17.1, and the problem has appeared in all the browsers I use: e.g., Firefox, Superbird, and Midori. If you have any problems with this, let me know.īeacon wrote:I am sorry for the delay in acknowledging the two responses. Windows Media Player Plugin - via Gecko Media Player My FireFox plug-ins related to video and multi-media files Some of those plug-ins may already be there, or might be automatically installed by installing the programs below thru SPM, or you may have to add those from within FireFox or Google Chrome. When the list comes up, make sure you have these programs below installed and if not, right click each one and mark for installation, if you don't see one, then search for that file specifically and mark it, then click "apply" in upper left, hit okay for anything, then when it is finished installing these, get out of the SPM, restart your computer, and go to those web sites you had a problem with and see if they work now.īelow this list, I have also listed the Firefox plug-ins under tools, add-ons, plug-ins, that I have in my browser. Go into your Synaptic Package Manager (SPM) which is in your System Menu, enter your password, type in "flash" in the search box, and hit enter. I have not had a problem viewing any website videos, so I just checked my system to see what I have installed that might help with this.
VLC should already be installed, if not, install it. Your subject line might be more informative if you said, "Browser problem viewing videos in Linux Mint 17", because people might think that you are looking for Windows Media Player for Linux to play media files on your desktop Amarok (music), VLC (video, music), and many others are great for this. I hope this is clearer to members than to me and would appreciate advice.įirst, It would help to have more information, like what Linux Mint 17 or 17.1 are you using (which Linux Mint: KDE, Cinnamon, Xfce, Mate?), what browser: Firefox or Google Chrome, what website(s) did you have a problem with, etc. Then, why is it not allowed? And how can I get the video on another media player. I wonder why there should even be Windows Media Player on Linux Mint. From other sites, I get the message 'Widows Medial Player Plug-in 10 (compatible: videos) is not allowed'. Other times, I am told I need to update my video player, although I have checked and all are the latest versions. Sometimes I click on a video, such as one contained on a newspaper site, and it works perfectly.
