Browser multimedia test pages for Debian Edu
To check if multimedia work properly in the browser in Debian Edu, test pages are needed. This wiki page is the place to collect such test pages. Prefer direct links to a page with multimedia content over links to the top level on a site with several different multimedia pages.
It is also useful to consider [http://sam.zoy.org/blog/2007-01-16-exposing-file-parsing-vulnerabilities the plugin reliability].
Plugins to test
There are several plugin packages available in Debian. Here are the ones we know about. [http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/mplayerplug-in.html mozilla-mplayer], [http://packages.qa.debian.org/k/kaffeine-mozilla.html kaffeine-mozilla], [http://packages.qa.debian.org/v/vlc.html mozilla-plugin-vlc], [http://packages.qa.debian.org/t/totem.html totem-mozilla], [http://packages.qa.debian.org/x/xine-plugin.html xine-plugin] and [http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gxine.html gxineplugin].
Non-flash based
The testing is done using iceweasel and epiphany-browser (becuase 2008-07-20 iceweasel refuses to start due to #491536).
