Kupfer – Alternative for gnome-do
A simple, flexible, application launcher for Gnome. Kupfer is a summoner/launcher in the style of Quıcĸsılⅴεʀ; you do not use it to search your files, you use it to summon the object you are thinking about.
Kupfer can right now summon Applications, Recent Files and Places, your chosen folders and their contents, Bookmarks, Windows and Gnu Screen sessions.
The ‘kupfer’ command launches kupfer, or spawns it if it is already running.
Just push enter, if you want to launch the application you see.
Remember, its very fresh application. So it may not work as you expect, but it’s worth a try.
To install it, open Terminal and write:
sudo conary update kupfer=@fl:2-devel
Maybe, just maybe, you need to install a dependency. But I’m a bit unsure about it.
mistelix

Maybe you need to uninstall current browser plugin for your browser, or change in settings in your browser to use Gecko Media Player.
