You will be offered the choice of several players. The <guilabel>Adobe Flash Player</guilabel> is the official plugin, which should offer the best support for videos. Unfortunately, it is proprietary software and so cannot be supported directly by Ubuntu. The Swfdec and Gnash players are not proprietary and so are supported. You may also find them to be more stable (cause fewer problems) than the official player.

Support for most other types of streaming video can be added by following the instructions for <link linkend="video-playback-file">video files</link> or <link linkend="video-playback-flash">Flash videos</link>. If you are having difficulties getting a video to stream in your web browser, right-click the video and select <guilabel>Open with "Movie Player"</guilabel> if that option is available.

If none of the other instructions in this section work with a particular video, try using a different media player. <ulink url="apt:vlc">VLC</ulink> and <ulink url="apt:mplayer">MPlayer</ulink> support a wide range of formats; it is recommended that you try one of these.

RealPlayer is a proprietary application, and so is not installed in the usual way.
