RTÉ and Ubuntu

[roantreb]

Hi all,


Continually having problems with the RTÉ site and anything that uses real or windows media streaming. Looked everywhere for solutions to no avail and I know a few other new Ubuntu users having the same problem.


Cheers,
Barra

What exactly is the problem? What browser are you using? Can you stream media through a media player?

I assume its the live streams (http://www.rte.ie/live/) that are not working for you, the flash player (http://www.rte.ie/player/) runs ok?

I just tried this on a fresh karmic install. Had to install the realpayer package from the medibuntu repository.

Look in this thread on how to add medibuntu packages: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766683

I could not get the windows media stream to work, but the real media rté live stream is working now.
