I have trouble with the Kaffeine-Mozilla as noted below. I posted the 
text below on a kaffeine user group but have had no response. 
Essentially I am asking how do you get both real format and other format 
streaming video/audio to work within your mozilla-compatible browser 
under recent Suse/KDE releases?

My post:
Sorry if this has been replied to many times previously. Couldn't find 
it in recent archive posts.

I am running Firefox 1.0.7 within KDE 3.4.2 and Suse 9.2. My kaffeine 
installation is 0.7.1.

If I do not install the kaffeine-mozilla plugin I can view my favourite 
real format (bbc.co.uk) streaming services using the real player 10 
plugin. I *cannot* view other (non-real) streaming format like .wmv, 
.wma, .mov etc, which I why I would like to get the kaffeine plugin working.

If I do install the kaffeine-mozilla plugin, then it tries and fails to 
take over real streaming functionality (puts up a black screen area with 
"start kaffeine plugin" and then error message boxes about failure to 
load cook.so.6.0).

Stand-alone kaffeine (not the browser plug-in) works fine for all media 
types I have thrown at it, having installed the windows codecs according 
to kaffeine faqs.
