Netscape 7.2 Question

dealnjak · 04-12-2007, 02:46 PM

I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to make Windows Media Player the default player for all sound/video files for the netscape 7.2 browser? Everytime I open an audio or video link in the browser, it opens with Quicktime embedded in the browser, and I can't seem to find anywhere to change the default on that. My IE browser defaults to opening everything with Media Player, and I would like to be able to do the same with Netscape. Any ideas?

Have you told windows media player to be the default player?

Yes, I tried to make it the default player, but every time I launch a file in the brower, it still defaults to quicktime. I removed/re-installed media player, and made it the default for everything, and now IE plays the files with media player, but Netscape still defaults to quicktime.

I use Netscape 7.2 and windows media player works just fine for the files I assigned it. You may have to go into wmp and manually check the files you want it to be the default player for.
