<pre wrap="">If you want to do it the way I did, you need to modify the menu item

Actually, the instructions for how the menu xml should look is here:

But the action you want is:
<action>EXEC /usr/bin/firefox</action>

That solved my problem, thanks. It didn't do what I was trying to do,
which I now see would be to have mythbookmarkmanager use firefox, but
it is good enough for what I want. More importantly, it solves my
sound problem in that the sound is going out of the spdif port when
using flashplayer withing firefox. Plus, I don't have to leave myth to
run firefox.<br>
<br>
What I did is modify /usr/share/mythtv/info_menu.xml and add this code:<br>
<br>
<button><br>
<type>FIREFOX</type><br>
<text>Firefox</text><br>
<action>EXEC /usr/bin/firefox</action><br>
</button><br>
<br>
I will probably customize it more to get the web sites I want to come
up with a push of the button, but you have definitely opened up a new
set of things that can be done with Myth. Very cool.<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
<br>
PS. I saved the original info_menu.xml file first.<br>
