Free flash video player software for linux

I like using Amarok for managing my podcasts but I wasnt able to play my video podcasts.

Amarok Video Player adds a PlayVideo/Play menu item to the context menu which runs KMPlayer.

Edit the script to change KMplayer to another video player.

FlowPlayer project is a video player for Flash Video in FLV format. The UI is clean and simple.
The player is easy to configure and embed into your home page, site, or blog.
FlowPlayer.swf is a player that is ready to be used out-of-the box. FlowPlayer.html is an example of Web page that uses it. The name of the video file to be loaded by the player is specified in html page in the < object > tags flashvars attribute. This attribute is there in two places (both in < objec t> and < embed > tags) to maximize the number of supported Web browsers.
By default, the player loads the video file from the same location as it loads FlowPlayer.swf. The name of this variable is videoFile and the value should be the name of the video file with or without an extension.
There is also a way to specify a complete URL. This is done using the baseURL variable. When this mechanism is used the video files and FlowPlayer.swf may reside in different locations within the Web server or even in different servers.
autoPlay variable is used to specify whether playback should start immediately when the player has been loaded into the Web browser. Legal values for this parameter are true and false.
Please refer to FlowPlayer.html for descriptions of all HTML parameters used to control the player.
Enhancements:
- New FlowPlayer Skinning Kit to make skinning the player better than ever before.
- There is a new package in the downloads for this.
- Added all dependencies to the source distribution package and now its easier for new developers to start hacking.
- Fixes: VideoHeight does not have any effect in full screen mode any more, now resizes to fit the full area.
- Configured progress bar, buffering bar etc. colors were ignored and now work as espected.

aeon is a music player that is meant to look nice and have an interface that is as easy to use as possible.

In contrast to BMPx it is entirely library based, which means you cant add individual files to it, but you have rather to add them to the library beforehand.

You can only play files from the library (akin to RhythmBox/iTunes).

playvideo is a video player for svgalib that supports AVI, Quicktime (though not all codecs are supported), MPEG-1, and MPEG-2 formats. Most of the codecs are ported from xanim (or are xanim binary codecs). The parts from xanim are to be found mainly in the vidplay.c file. This makes this program subject to the xanim copyright (see README.xanim).

You can use the program for non-commercial purpose, but you need a License from Mark Podlipec for commercial use. Modified versions have included Marks copyright.

Witty CD Player is a cd player program that uses cdda2wav for software buffering.

I started having problems with my CD-ROM drive skipping badly on every audio track for several months. At the same time, I wanted to try my hand at GTK. So, I decided to write the "The Witty CD Player." (The name is a play on my last name The Witty CD Player uses the cdda2wav program to perform oversampling to account for the skips.

Who to use it with Firefox:

Now I will explain you how to get it working with Firefox,

First we need a Firefox extension called: Lanchy,
this extension give us the ability to open directly from Firefox Youtube video on youtube webpage (not on all webpages that have a youtube video!

You ALWAYS need the youtube videos webpage! After you have installed Launchy (from firefoxs addon site), restart Firefox, now it will ask you to insert a Launchys button on your toolbar (DO IT! so open Youtube videos will be very simply), after that go on the preferences/option of this extension and uncheck the option: "search automatically programs".

Now copy the "launchy.xml" file that you found on the package and copy it on your directory:
".mozilla/firefox/YOUR_ID.default/chrome/" , after copied it, please dont forget to edit it with your myvs.py COMPLETE PATH, and add or delete oppurtune option to pass to the script.

Now restart again firefox an watch if it recognise the command (by pressing the G).

Go on youtube.com, open a video webpage, click on the G button-> Open in Mplayer Youtube Video Streamer.
