How can I force firefox use mplayer when I click on an attachment audio/mpeg (mp3)?

If I go into preferences/applications and .avi files using mplayer, that it works exactly as he used the value, but if I do it for mp3 audio/mpeg fires mplayer adds to the list of download but when I click on the mp3 file
It opens a new page with something that kind of looks like a player, but does not work! the download button argues that "Movie player is the default but I run mplayer to be the default value. Note: it's firefox - 32.0.2. This has worked in 23.0.1 - 1

OK my pilot error! This fix allows clicking on the mp3 play at least sounds if I set preferences correctly for mplayer. But it still does not put the mplayer window so I have no control to pause the audio. Maybe it's because mplayer is loaded as a plugin. It is interesting that if I use totem instead of mplayer, totem runs in a new window, which allows the audio control.

  • How can I force firefox to open an exact url

    I live in England but regularly visit the United States. When I'm in the USA some URLS which I use regularly at home translates automatically to their international counterparts. For example, if I type www.bbc.co.uk at home, this site is loaded. If I'm in the USA, it is translated to www.bbc.com, which does not access the same information.

    This is just one example - the same thing happens with other sites.

    How to force Firefox to open specific URL I want to access?

    Hello, these will be redirects server based on the site to guess your location based on your IP address. There is no way for the browser to work around this, other than using a proxy or VPN service from the United Kingdom...

  • How can I make Firefox use another version of the installed Java runtime?

    For purposes of development, I have several versions of the Java runtime on my 64 bit Windows 7 computer. I try to keep the number of JDK and JRE installation to a minimum and I want Firefox to use JRE 1.7.0_21 (32 bit) because this happened with a version of JDK, I am forced to use another application.

    Firefox however use JRE 1.6.0_31 and is correctly reported as non-secure. It offers me the upgrade option, but I don't want to download and install a different JRE since I already said 1.7.0_21 installed JRE. I would prefer very just to be able to point Firefox so that JRE. I don't see an option to select a different JRE installed however.

    I tried to manually edit the file pluginreg.dat (I know, it says do not edit...) by changing the entries of JRE 1.6 and 1.7 of the JRE, but on reboot, my changes have been overwritten and was back at the old JRE. So I can't view some web sites (also company/internal) without having to change to any browsers.

    Please let me know how I can make Firefox use the already installed JRE 1.7.

    Firefox scans the registry to find the location of the plugins.
    If Firefox detects a plugin and not the other, then that means that the other Java plugin is not having a corresponding registry key.

    64-bit Windows:
    HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\MozillaPlugins\@Java.com/JavaPlugin,version=XX.XX.XX
    32-bit Windows:

  • How can I make firefox use http instead of https?

    In internet business, it is problematic to use https.
    However firefox by default always to https connections (for example during a google image search in the toolbar search, or when you type an address bar starting with "www"); so always raise an alert page "this connection is untrusted" and make me go the address bar manually and change the 'https' in the 'http'.
    In Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, it is very easy to install the browser to use http instead of https protocol. However, I can't find this option in firefox. Any ideas?

    There are two different parameters involved:

    Address bar Autofill

    If you used HTTPS to a site before, the AutoFill feature to Firefox address bar will prefer the HTTPS address. If you don't mind by selecting from the drop-down instead, or just type the address in full, you can disable AutoFill the address bar. Here's how:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the filter box, type or paste the AutoFill and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click browser.urlbar.autoFill from true to false.

    Search from the address bar

    About the address bar search, you can change the URL used by the 'key word' service. Please see this thread for links: unable to connect to the proxy because of the automatic https.

    That solve it?

  • How can I force Firefox to download mp3 files and NOT play?

    Hi guys,.

    I couldn't change the settings of Firefox in this way, that it does not play mp3 files at all (in any kind of player), but allows to decide what with them for example to download the file.

    What I actually did:

    - changed at settings, that I want a dialog or download any file type and NOT use any other option (yes, all of them - not any kind of effect was seen there...)
    - changed especially all mp3-related options to download
    - deactivated ALL plugins and addons
    - about:config -> media.windows-media-foundation.enabled -> false
    - uninstalled ALL types of mediaplayers (Winamp, VLC etc.), but not WMP because it would be very complicated and would cause several bugs
    

    Many updates before (I think it's up to 20 FF or if) you could simply tell FF, I tried to download the file via the settings and now it isn't.

    Is it possible to left I can force Firefox to NOT READ mp3 files in any player and offer my the possibility to download?

    Please do NOT give answers like:

    - right click on the file and save it as ... I allready know that and do not want to use that solution. A few years before it was possible, so it should also be possible to directly click at the file and decide what to do with it. On all the sites I want to use it the possibilities are given and not blocked by the sites or implementations itself.
    

    I thank very you much for your help in advance. I'm desperately trying to find an answer to this question for months...

    Hello TurZ, please set media.windows - media - foundation.enabled back to its default value and turn media.play - stand alone false instead.

  • How can I stop prematurely submitted forms when users click ' enter '?

    Is it possible that I can prevent Dreamweaver CF bid forms the user submitted prematurely when he clicks on the button "Enter" before they have completed the form?  I need the users at the end of form and click the button 'send '.  I have the key action 'Submit' set up as a 'submit form '.

    You can use javascript to validate the form without reloading the page, but users with js disabled will still be able to send the form. In this case use the form validation on the server side. Search Google for the terms described here will lead you to solutions.

  • I have several symbols, how can we showed above the others when you click it?

    I have an animation that is a City/Beach/sea, and different parts of the city are symbols that can be clicked on, for example a boat in the sea could be clicked that would then lead the boat. My problem is that the boat could grow to fill the screen, then the animation playing, but as there are many other symbols, then another symbol could be on top of the animation clicked on / reading. Ideally when each animation is clicked, it would move to the top of the list of layers, but I guess that's not possible, so I was wondering if anyone had a better way to do this?

    You need to change the z-index when you click on a higher level and return it to its original level when it ends, or when the user clicks on another symbol.

  • How can I get Firefox to work when my laptop says I have access to the Internet, but don't be loading not my pages?

    I'm not very keen with the terminology of my computer, but I'll try to explain my situation better than I can.

    I think that the problem began with a recent trip where I went out of State and took my laptop, I had problems connecting to wifi it. I was originally a bridge between Ethernet and wifi connection I think (something I said should not be the problem) and I had to take off for my wifi to work and once I did that my wifi worked well there. Once I came home however, my computer connects to my wifi at home and say I have 'internet access' but does not load anything on Firefox or Internet Explorer. I have already tried to rebuild the bridge, restart my laptop and analyses of virus. I know that my Internet works so if someone could help understand me what needs to change in my settings, or whatever it is I would be very happy.

    Hi Marcos140,

    I'd like to help, but is very difficult to diagnose with so little information...

    Do you know why you need the bridge in the first place?

    Your laptop connects via a wired or wireless?

    Please try this:

    1. Click Start
    2. Type cmd
    3. Press on enter
    4. Opens a black box
    5. type ' ipconfig/all '.
    6. Screenshot of the output
    7. Type "ping google.com".
    8. Screenshot

    If you can post the output of these commands, that it will help you.

    Thank you
