When inserting media in Firefox, there seems to be a problem.  The media shows up correctly in the insert popup window.  However when it is in the editor itself, it looks like it is inserted as Flash.  I have tested this with my own CE config as well as the one on this website and am able to reproduce the problem.  I have all the necessary plugins installed in Firefox so the plugins are not the issue here.  You can view a screenshot of this problem at : this website.

Any ideas yet?  This is a big problem for us.  Thanks!

I guess I can understand why you would want to do that for Flash, but this problem is regarding other media content like audio and video.  Is there any way to turn this feature off?

It works fine with Internet Explorer but not with Firefox for some reason.

Here are two media sound clips inserted into the editor.  They are exactly the same file.  One works and one does not.  The top image is the media inserted into Internet Explorer and the bottom is the media inserted into Firefox.  Can you explain why this is happenning?

I'm afraid, Adam, you have not read the posting correctly. UnlnvlslblE was talking about "...other media content like audio and video..." NOT flash. I have never tried to insert a flash file. As UnInvIsIblE mentions, Mozilla-based browsers show WMV files as flash files in the Cute Editor edit window. Once saved and re-displayed from the database, it shows the correct embedded player. I can definitely live with that....but one thing I can't live with (and this might have to do with my understanding of cross-browser embedded media) is...

After saving, IE plays the video file correctly, no matter which browser I used to insert it. FireFox does not play the video - if you look at the HTML "source" of the page after posting, FireFox will have an incorrect absolute URL to the video file.

Which settings should I use to guarantee WMVs and WMAs are displayed correctly by either browser? I've tried several combinations of absolute, relative, and BaseHRef settings, and so far, nothing's worked.

This problem doesn't exist for images...
