mPlayer Hack

by RogerRabit222 Jun 19, 2008 10:24AM PDT

Hello,

Often I like to watch movies at www.themoviepit.org on windows. The problem is a lot of their movies are hosted on Veoh, which requires the 'VeohTV' plug in to watch. I cant find any kind of veohTV plug in for ubuntu. Anyone know some kind of way to hack mplayer to play veoh or something? I've been working this problem over for a while now, but I just cant figure it out... Veoh has the good quality ones too

I Hate having to reboot into windows everytime I want to watch a movie...

Thanks alot!

Roger

No problems here?

I'm watching a video on Veoh right now - is this just specific to that site you were talking about, or specific to movies? It seems to just require Flash and the usual codecs that you always need.

I recently discovered SurfTheChannel.com, which also has movies.
