Assuming your using intrepid up-to date, are you using 10.0.15.3ubuntu1~intrepid version of the plugin? I also switched to sun jav6 but don't know if that had any effect. With the 10 version on my 64 bit machine, I haven't found an embedded video that I can't play. I did have that problem you describe before going to the above changes.  If you like, I'll be glad to test
the video for its url.
