Hi, I just switched to Ubuntu hardy heron from XP. My main problem is I cant watch my old internet tv stations. I am trying to get the player on 30minutelunchbreak.com to work (the top one, not the youtube version). So far I am having trouble following directions from the other postings unless they really explain where to do what.
This website has a great selection of news channels that I cannot find anywhere else. I have read other posts that recomend finding new media sources, I dont really want to do that. I believe one channel from this website (euronews) is actually a pay channel that come in for free here. The euronews website only has clips, not the live stream.
I believe it is a windows media player pluggin that is needed - but I thought I have that installed already.
I have these plugins enabled on my firefox browser: windows media player 10, vlc multimedia (compatible totem), Totem, shockwave flash, quicktime, helix dna realplayer, divx.
In my applications menu I have: totem, vlc, and mplayer.
At first I got a black screen with the image of a computer monitor. After installing vlc, I get black screen with the text [no video].
I would sure appreciate anyone who would look at the website and at least give me some clues as to what they think is needed to display it.
