Public bug reported: Totem will not play Youtube videos. The Youtube plugin is installed, but the problem seems to be in launching the uri to play the video. When i try to play one then drill down into the error dialog I get the following message:
Error Launching URI Could not launch URL "http://www.gnome.org/projects/totem/#codecs": Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/firefox-3.0/firefox-3.0" (No such file or directory) The error message is correct i do not have a /usr/lib/firefox-3.0 directory. On the otherhand I still have a beta directory.
