So, do you know if it's possible to play these using SM?
There appears to be considerable differences among Seamonkey users on
whether the video can be played. It will not work for me and I have
tested for Helpers both Windows Media Player and Quicktime 7.7.3.
Seamonkey shows that video/mp4 points to these helpers.
If I look at the page source with Seamonkey, the entry for mp4 says
<video controls>
<source src="" type="video/mp4">
Your browser does not support playing HTML5 videos.
</video>
This may be the problem although I thought that Seamonkey would handle
HTML5 sites.
But the file in question is
<http://wqdatalive.com/uploads/video/TREC/NOAA_RSC_A_2014_05_07_12_02_00.mp4>,
so no HTML5 support is needed.
As a test, I switched my pref from VLC to WMP and the vid still played fine.
If I click that .mp4 link, I get the video in VLC. But if I clock the
<http://wqdatalive.com/public/55> link and then navigate to Near Shore
Bout and Latest Video, I get the original poster's problem.
Furthermore, if I enable FlashBlock before starting the navigation to
Latest Video, I get an indication that the video is Flash (f in a circle
with the f changing to a right-pointing triangle if I move my cursor
into the area).
By the way, my Helper Applications show "VLC media player 2.1.3" for
"MPEG-4 File Format (video/mp4)".
Scratch that last post. All of a sudden everything showed up in my
SeaMonkey Helper Applications.
Setting all plugins to always ask, MPEG Video and MPEG-4 Video in Helper
Applications to 'Always ask', quitting and restarting, and the video
still plays for me.
Just set every damn video format to 'Always ask', cleared cookies and
cache, quit, restarted, and the video plays for me.

I quit, too nice out to be inside.
