Thankfully,a simple solution to this problem has been posted at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/707460?

Mozilla needs to either make a fix to this or notify Real Player about the problem, but they need to address it one way or another and not rely on users of Mozilla to fix every problem the have every time they update or many will switch from Mozilla to another browser again!

I had the same problem until I found this solution:


This worked for me

type about:config in the address bar Then in the filter box type dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npswf32.dll.

Then change the value to false.

Restart FireFox

I have the latest version of Firefox as well as the most recent version of real player. I cannot find an add-on for real player downloader, though, in the list of add-ons.

Any solution yet???

RealPlayer - (32-bit) - v 15.0.1.13

Seems that on my Plugins tab all are enabled but on my Extension tab "RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin 15.0.1" is disabled with no way for me to enable it. I have updated both Firefox and RealPlayer.

I too use this feature a lot and hope there is a solution soon.

Have a Good One, Dave
