I am having problems running video streams on certain sites. When I go to You
Tube, I have no problem playing video. When I attempt to replay a race video
at at racing site, it opens media, connects to media, then says ready and
nothing plays on the screen. I have tried everything I can think of. Anyone
have any suggestions? Is it a problem with the site since I can play video on
other sites??

What would be helpful is to kow which site it is. It could be that you have
to hit a "Play" button for it to run, or something else going on.

the site is www.calracing.com I was on this a.m. with tech support and they
can't figure it out either. All settings are double and triple checked and
correct. I have an old desktop and I can play video from it so it can't be
the ISP. It has to be something blocking my laptop.
This is so frustrating. My horse just won at Golden Gate Fields and I can't
see the replay. My tv DVR cut the race off a hundred yards out of the gate.
Any ideas??

Interesting, as I went to the site and things seemed to work well for me
for the most part. Since the race day at GGF is over, I wasn't able to get a
"live" feed. If you are using Media Player 11 then you should be fine. Did
you try it with all of your Internet security stuff off?

Yes I have turned off firewall. No help. There is something blocking the
video from playing. No buffer. I have even tried re setting to all defaults.
