Afspil lyd og video med Silverlight plugin'et

https://support.mozilla.org/da/kb/afspi ... t-pluginet

Mozilla har besluttet at holde op med at understøtte alle NPAPI-plugins undtagen Flash i Marts 2017, når Firefox version 52 udsendes. Læs mere i denne artikel og i dette blog-indlæg.

Microsoft Silverlight er et plugin, som nogle websteder bruger til at vise multimedieindhold.

Silverlight er ikke tilgængelig til Linux-platformen, og den eneste open source implementering af Silverlight, kaldet Moonlight, udvikles ikke længere. Den kan stadig kompileres fra kildekoden, men det anbefales ikke at bruge den. Mere information findes på siden Moonlight installation. [/quote]

Description

For years, Mozilla has aimed to make the Web plug-in-free by enhancing Web standard technologies because plug-ins are negatively affecting the browser performance, security and user experience.

From animation effects, video playback, drag & drop file upload, clipboard manipulation to interactive 3D games, realtime video chat, now everything can be done without a plug-in. Firefox offers a build-in PDF reader and DRM support as well.

Microsoft has deprecated Silverlight. Oracle has also announced the deprecation of the Java browser plug-in. As of April 2016, QuickTime for Windows is no longer supported by Apple. The QuickTime plug-in for OS X has already been disabled since 10.9 Mavericks.

Therefore, the legacy NPAPI plug-in support in Firefox, deprecated since October 2015, has been removed from Firefox 52 with the exception of still-popular Adobe Flash Player. On the Windows 64-bit version of Firefox, Flash and Silverlight are already the only supported plug-ins. Web publishers must develop a plan to replace any plug-in content, including Java applets and Silverlight videos, with alternative technologies.

For enterprise users who require Java in particular, Firefox 52 Extended Support Release (ESR) will keep the plug-in support enabled until May 2018.
