Can you try uninstall, remove xulrunner folder, xulrunner.zip and install version 1.0.0?

I uninstalled, searched my PC for the xulrunner folder and xulrunner.zip and could not find it so I assumed the installer had successfully removed that.

I also found the Geckofx folder in AppData and deleted it. Also went in to the installer folder and deleted the already downloaded 1.0.0.0 .mpe2 installer.

Then I decided to reinstall from the Extensions Manager.

Finally it worked![DOUBLEPOST=1364681379][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yeah I would appreciate some advice too. At present I have Flash installed and working for my Firefox and Opera browsers. In both cases the browsers' plugin folders don't have a flash DLL. The flash DLL lives in C:\Windows\System32\Macromed. So essentially I just need the gecko browser to be told where to look for flash but I don't know how to do that. Do I need to redownload the Flash installer and run it again for it to register with gecko?

I've got flash working now. Installed flash for other browsers as usual. Then created a new file called prefs.js in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\xulrunner\defaults\pref. Inserted the following line:

user_pref("extensions.blocklist.enabled", false);

    I never have seen something like this before, but after the change to a newer engine of BTW I get popups. Have anyone seen this behavior, too?

    New version is published (1.1.0.0)
    ChangeLog:
    Added compatibility with MP 1.4.0
    More items to click on (html select items, items which have hidden links under them)
    Added skin selection to installer
    Fixed installation issues (no more xulrunner.zip)
    Skin improvements
    Rework of DOM-handling (f.e. now also numbers in iframes, pre-filled texts in the virtual keyboard, automatically do a web-post if appropriate)
    Fixed location for the preferences (btwebprefs.js in the mediaportal data-folder)

    And now upgrade my htpc to win7 so that I can actually benefit from these changes :)

    I think I also needed to set the environment variable MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH to where the flash DLLs were installed, otherwise it doesn't seem to work.

    BBC news articles with embedded videos no longer show the videos (just a page without the vid).
    Any ideas?

    Did you enable flash?
    Mind you, Airwolf's last post is outdated, you should put your prefs according to the FAQ in the first post. If that was already the case, please provide an url which I can test with
