If the problem is in windows too, it might be a plugin issue. I have never used the mplayer plugins for firefox in Linux, but I've had weird sound plugin issues in Windows. Other than to check your plugins, I wouldn't know much else to tell you (even which plugin to check) unless we knew what filetypes the sound files were -- .mp3, .wav, etc... -- Alex Esplin -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
