Hey,

I have gecko-mediaplayer installed and it always buffer a full 100% before starting up when I watch quicktime videos online on ITunes trailers using the Chromium browser.

I would like to have it started automatically after 20% of buffering, but can't find the setting allowing it to do so.

I know it's possible since Lubuntu does it. :)

Workaround is to use the Totem plugin, but it's a bit heavy on my OpenBox setup. I would rather just use Gecko-mediaplayer instead.

Any suggestions?

I don't use it myself but a little searching revealed to me that it uses mplayer.
Mplayer has a config file in /etc/mplayer (systemwide) where you can set this AFAIK.
You can also create an mplayer config in your /home/username/.mplayer/config.
