Sorry --
You go to the Mozilla>tools>extensions  site  and once there you have a 
chance to look for more 'things'.  That is what you bring up and than do a 
search for
"mediaplayerconnectivity".   It will pop up.  Make your selection and than 
you will be all set.
Hope I didn't confuse you further..
