I have NEVER been able to see -- or even stay connected to -- the Nets video features at YES website (http://yesnetwork.com). My Firefox browser is up to date. I have tried it with Internet Explorer also. In both cases, I usually get the obligatory commercial fine, but when the feature starts, the player attempts to connect and then stops, as if it timed out trying to play the media stream. I have not found a way to simply right click and download the content, which I would be willing to do even if I can't watch it as a stream. I'm never prompted that I need to download any codec or plugin, and the WMP plugin launches fine when I click a link . I'm on cable broadband with very good download bandwidth. Any ideas what the problem is? For those that watch the Nets features successfully, what browser (including version) and media player settings (e.g., connection speed) are you using?
did u try updating ur windows media player? if that doesnt work there is an addon in firefox that lets u watch it in ur own program. I forgot the name but if upgrading windows media doesnt work i'll try to find it out for u. Really busy right now.
thanks a bunch, ffz. I will try to update the player. I know I did that a few months back, during summer league, and I had the problem long before then, but I'll try it again.
Does this play for you in Windows Media player? http://mfile.akamai.com/24715/wmv/y...n/2008/njn/archive10/102908_pg_carter_400.wmv Copy and paste the link into Media player.
try https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/446 I know that one works in linux, but im not sure about windows. Theres tons of addons like that for firefox.
Hi NOMAM, No, I can't play it. A new tab opens up in Firefox, but it's just blank white . . . no player window, no popup asking about blocked content or other browser settings, no nothing. This is the same thing that happens whenever I click any link to YES video from NetsDaily. When I click "Save Target As" on your link (or on YES links at ND), the file is stored to my chosen location on my computer, but it's stored as a 0 KB file that clearly is acting only as a link for the streamed media. Incidentally, I checked for WMP updates, and I already had the most recent version installed, so that's a no go. I have already added "Download Helper" addon for Firefox, hoping that would let me download the embedded video. No joy.
I mean open Windows media player. Go to File > Open URL. Then paste this link into the box" http://mfile.akamai.com/24715/wmv/y...n/2008/njn/archive10/102908_pg_carter_400.wmv See if it plays for you.
Also, open Windows Media Player. Go to Tools > Options > File Type tab. Check the WMV, ASF box if it isn't checked already.
