xine-plugin does not appear in firefox3's "about:plugin" page

[geofs]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Ubuntu hardy (development branch) 8.04 (Upgraded from 7.10 (upgraded from 7.04 (upgraded from 6.10)))

Firefox Version: 3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
xine-plugin version: 1.0.1~cvs20070523-1ubuntu1
gxineplugin version: 0.5.11-5ubuntu1
libxine1 version: 1.1.10.1-2

DESCRIPTION:

I'd like to watch some video stream using xine-plugin but that doesn't work. Firefox asks to download the plugin.

I checked the following locations:

root@geof-laptop:~# ls /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
flashplugin-alternative.so gxineplugin.so libflashplayer.so libjavaplugin.so nppdf.so xineplugin.so

root@geof-laptop:~# ls /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
flashplugin-alternative.so gxineplugin.so libjavaplugin.so nppdf.so xineplugin.so

root@geof-laptop:~# ls /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/
flashplugin-alternative.so gxineplugin.so libflashplayer.so libjavaplugin.so nppdf.so xineplugin.so

But the pluging does not appear in firefox 3.0b4 's "about:plugins" page and does not load (i.e. i can't watch videos).

WHAT I EXPECTED:

I expected firefox to find xine-plugin and xine-plugin to play my video. It's ok with konqueror+xine-plugin.

Firefox 3 is using /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins for its plugins. Did you try it?

[Fabien Tassin (fta)]

erh, I mean /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins
