Ernesto,

Since it works on Windows, then I assume there's
no problem on the SMIL side, so it's probably
a embedded player (NSPlugin) problem on Linux.
So I'm copying the player-dev mailing list, since
they would be the best ones to find out where
the segfault is.

Daniel, can you tell what's going wrong here?
