Hello guys,  
  
  
  
I’m trying to fix The Daily Show and The Colbert Report plugins. I so far fixed the clips part by adding a manual click after a video is loaded (the clips are not autostarting and need to be clicked).  
  
  
  
Is there a way to use code something like this (but actually working):

```auto

<run script="var myVariable = 'http://google.com';" /><br />
<visit url="myVariable" /><br />

```

  
  
The problem is, I can watch those shows on my laptop, but when started from Plex I get "Sorry, this video is unavailable from your location" - I'm from Bulgaria.  
The plugins' site configurations are locking to the right flash player, but to actually make them work I need to just change the url from:  

```auto

http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:cms:episode:thedailyshow.com:411191

```

  
to:  

```auto

http://media.mtvnservices.com/player/prime/mediaplayerprime.1.12.1.swf?uri=mgid:cms:episode:thedailyshow.com:411191

```

  
  
I am doing this in javascript, but I couldn't find a way to tell WebKit to change to that page, window.location.href doesn't change the browser's location as in a normal web browser.
