[ubuntu-uk] Update causing problems with video playing...

2010-03-18 Thread John Matthews
I was just getting used to Ubuntu working just about ok on my pc, when 
we had an update for something yesterday, now I cant play them again. I 
have tried FF, Chrome and Chromium and none will play videos. Can 
somebody help?

Hi Mark,

I have the restricted package installed. I had a problem like this a few 
months back, when there was an update. Some updates just dotn seem to 
work too well with videos for some reason. Its mainly flash I think.

Did you just upgrade Firefox to 3.6 from a PPA too? Were the videos
working after that and before the update?

You could try disabling the PPA and reverting back to Firefox 3.5.x to
see if that fixes things.
