Hello,

After some experimenting and thinking, I would re-phrase the problem
as follows:

When the same plugin is called more than once on the same page, it is
not initialized properly next time, making it impossible to play
the next object.

Further, trying again with Firefox-2/Quicktime/Windows, I could NOT
repeat the same thing. I'm sorry for providing wrong information in
this area.

Kind regards,

Menno Tjoelker
