Workarounds for Using Mozilla Firefox to view YTMND's

If you use Mozilla Firefox and are receiving the "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page." error, you may find one of the following workarounds useful for browsing YTMND's.

IE Tab Extension[1]

• The IE Tab extension lets you view content in Firefox as if it were rendered in Internet Explorer.
• You can change the rendering engine of the current page and open links in Internet Explorer tabs or in the external application itself.
  Using Javascript-style regular expression, you can even filter some sites to automatically render in IE.
• Sample Forumla: /^http:\/\/(?!wiki\.).*ytmnd.com.*$/
  This formula will open all ytmnd.com pages in internet explorer except those starting with "http://wiki." so the YTMND wiki will still open in a Firefox rendered tab.

Enabling wav files

If YTMND's with mp3 files work properly, but those with wav files don't, your Quicktime may be configured improperly. Go to the Control Panel and click on the Quicktime icon. Click on the browser tab and then go to MIME settings. Click on audio and make sure WAVE audio is enabled.
