Veetle HD not working

[ramkumarc]

I am new to ubuntu. Is Veetle HD compatible in ubuntu because i am unable to see veetle HD streaming ??. any solution for this ??

[searchfgold6789]

There is a linux installer on this page: http://www.veetle.com/index.php/download
Since Ubuntu is used by 50% of the linux users, I would assume it works well (and was probably even tested on) Ubuntu.

I did install it. I am able to stream normal videos but unable to stream HD videos. should i do anything ??

I have it working fine. Could you be more specific on what the problem is or any error messages you are getting.

Do you have 64 bit OS?

[ramkumarc]

Its asking me to install veetle if it is a HD link.
Yeah i am using 64 bit OS.

If you have installed using the veetle install script you should have 5 shared object files in ~/.mozilla/plugins and a load under ~/.veetle_vlc, do you have these?
also close your browser restart from a terminal prompt, and see if there is any relevant output when you try to play a video.

Not working here either.

In ~/.mozilla/plugins I have libveetle-broadcast-plugin.so, libveetle-core-plugin.so and libveetle-player-plugin.so. You said 5?

Nothing comes up in terminal. I never get to the play video part because "This channel is only available in HD. Upgrade to Veetle TV to watch". Non-HD streams do work.

I'm also using 64-bit and FF4.0 is also 64-bit.

I also have:
libveetle-core-plugin-x86_64.so
libveetle-player-plugin-x86_64.so
I have just downloaded the tarball from veetle's site but it only seems to have the 32 bit versions.
Thinking about it a bit more i think i got the 64 bit version from their forums which seems down at the minute.
Edit: try this:
http://veetle.com/download.php/veetle-0.9.17plus.tgz

Reinstalled from that tarball - now works.
