You need Firefox and from the repositories (media player + plugin):

mplayer + mozilla-mplayer
or
VLC+ mozilla-plugin-vlc
or
kaffeine + kaffeine-mozilla

=>

If you have installed plug-in and aboutlugins /1/ don't show it. Try to copy plugins from
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ to the ~/.mozilla/plugins/ =>

Your English is good.

That x-mplayer2 is a tough one:

The gecko plugin appears to provide support for mplayer and Windows media player streams -- that is what it says when I open Tools>Add-ons>Plugins. But on mine, it does not play this site:

Which I have bookmarked, in case I ever figure out how to make it work. :P

This is Firefox 3.0 Beta, 64-bit architecture. Other flash and multimedia streams appear to work with Gecko, including BBC streams.
