Can anybody see the concerts hosted by AOL? I am trying with Safari, IE, and it just says that I do not have the right plugin. Mediaplayer is installed, but it cannot play the contents. This sucks!!!

The site hosting the broadcast was pretty strange actually. In the morning I couldn't get firefox to load the video streams, even though I had the WMP plugin. I tried Safari, and it worked just fine. Later, I came back from a run, and tried to fire up the stream again. This time instead of video, I got a message that said "Safari is not supported. Please use Firefox or AOL Client", despite the fact that Safari loaded the site just fine hours earlier. I tried firefox again, and sure enough that worked just fine in the afternoon.

Weird.

live8live.com worked fine on my machine with Safari. What I can't see in Tiger are www.ifilm.com and http://www.raiclick.rai.it/
They used to work in Panther....

If you enable the debug menu, and select the MSIE 6.0 user agent, it works fine. ****ing AOL is blocking us by user agent.

Yeah, that's what I found odd about the whole situation. They started blocking Safari by user agent during the broadcast. If you connected early with safari, it worked fine. Only when trying to hit the page (or switch streams) a few hours into the concert did people start getting the "please use firefox or AOL" message.
