There are 5 plugins in /usr/lib/browser/plugins:

N900:/usr/lib/browser/plugins# ls -l
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6723876 Apr 16 12:37 libflashplayer.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24256 Feb 17 14:42 mediaplayer-plugin.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 43812 Apr 7 16:17 npatlas.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32380 Apr 7 16:17 npmessagebus.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20752 Feb 10 19:57 osso-plugin.so

FYI - I did a backup of my bookmarks using the "Backup" utility, deleted /home/user/.mozilla directory and ran killall browserd in xterm and now it works... ;)

lol nitrates:) yeah, strange what typos can through up sometimes. I think I need to cut my nails.

DrWiliken-that's very interesting.Might try that too. Would the sheer amount of bookmarks you have cause a problem somehow? I know it doesn't make much sense, but nothing much that makes sense does work. It might be like that problem which caused double directories to appear everywhew in file manager when you had more than(was it 35?) directories in the mydocs folder.

Sorry

But Flash playback has always been terrible with the N900 for me. Even with Ztoube the videos are very pixelated and slow.

Is this normal?

Regards Markus

Nope, it can't be the amount of bookmarks. I don't have that many (50 max)... :)

Another thing... It actually didn't delete any bookmarks (as far as I can see)... Guess they are stored somewhere else now... :D

Sorry for the confusion, when a flash video is playing on a pc, a right mouse click brings up a menu. The same on the N900 only you'd have to keep pressing the screen where the video is located in order to bring up the menu. My previous description was a bit in a hurry.

Here' a wild quest:
When a flash video is accessible on the N900, keep touching the menu and note what numbers the JW Player has. Mine is 4.5.216 and clicking on About does nothing as it does for the rest of the options of Toggling Fullscreen or changing the Stretching.
I wonder what version those without ptoblems have and those still with PR 1.1
Also, the jw player went through version 5.0, 5.1 and even 5.5 as it seems, did Nokia forgot to update the JW Player for us?

You're right, JW Player does't seem to be a universal flash player. Some websites have different flash players from what it seems.
My PR1.2 flash problem originated on www.tvr.ro where there's a flash video content right in the center of the home page. Going full screen with that video shows only in a quarter of the screen. With PR1.1 it worked great.
