I use VLC, but that still doesn't play embedded video. I'll try that xmms thing. Is there a good audio player where I can make playlists and ----?

xmms and amarok I think you can make playlists with most of them.

if you're using vlc you need to switch firefox to use that plugin instead of totem. I'm not sure about the resolution thing, you'd need to possibly check the error logs on your x server.

Should help with getting all the software you need installed so you can have inbeded video play in firefox.. I like the automatix program. Makes it one click install to get good stuff like a dvd ripper and encoder.

I created an Unbutu server box here at work Friday and am going to start moving some websites to it soon. Ideally, it'll become a LAMP box. Right now we are using a mismash of databases and scripting languages. bleh!!
