[ubuntu-uk] Firefox and BBC video clips

[alan c]

In both kubuntu 6.06 and 6.10 (different machines) I am getting 
problems with Firefox and bbc video clips.

I believe the existing configuration was mplayer (plugin) with FF but 
from my present experiences I am only getting any success at all after 
removing mplayer, (re) installing realplayer and for good measure 
(re)installing firefox. The video clips then play ok in realpayer as a 
separate player, and not integral in FF.

Is something happening with bbc or the apps, (or not) that I have missed?
