Is this the moonlight-plugin-mozilla package, or the browser addin installed from go-mono.com?

[Bjørn M Brekken (bmbrekken)]

It is a issue with the moonlight-plugin-mozilla package. With the version from go-mono.com it have no option to install the codecs so i believe it is included by default.
But neither of them works and won't display any video from nrk.no or any other sites i have tried.
My system i up to date by this date 19. June 2010

Thank you for posting this bug.

In Maverick, I did not have a crash when installing the Microsoft codecs. If this is a bug about moonlight content playing, then this is a dup of 636231.
