Task to serve up the live stream content from QVC at:-
http://qvcuk.com/ (Watch QVC live) using Konqueror.

Mplayer and the mplayer plugin for Mozilla (M) were already
previously installed and M was able to serve up the content 
okay. But Konqueror (K) would just open a small window and 
that was it.

Xine was already installed so:-

Install Kaffeine from http://kaffeine.sourceforge.net/ or 
'yum install kaffeine'.

(Requirements were xine-lib 1.0rc4 and KDE 3.1.0)

Then from same site http://kaffeine.sourceforge.net/ also 
install the kaffeine/mozilla plugin 'kaffeine-mozilla-0.2.tar.bz2'.
The plugin is installed with standard:-
 bzip2 -cd kaffeine-mozilla-0.2.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
then:-
cd kaffeine-mozilla-0.2
./configure
make
make install

The plugin is placed in /usr/local/plugins as 
kaffeineplugin.so

In K install this plugin from the plugins option page of 
the K settings page by installing 'new' location and 
scanning for the new plugin. Then Apply the new settings

Check in 'File associations' under 'applications' then scroll
down to x-mplayer2 and make sure kaffeine is the top of the 
Application Preference Order, using the move up button if 
needed. On the embedding page tick the button 'show file in 
embedded viewer'. Again kaffeine (kaffeine_part) should be 
top of the 'Services Preference Order'.
Then Apply the new settings.

That should be it and can be tested at the QVC site.
