Hello maxi-deci,

on the site it says that the player needs ActiveX, which is an IE only technology.

I suppose there's no way to integrate ActiveX into Firefox.

well I do not know much about ActiveX, but I used to enjoy the videos from the page.

Last week I also made Firefox guys at Linuxtag to play video stream from this site, and it worked like charm there.
