Does anyone know if you can watch bloomberg tv on the mac/?
They have wmv formats and I can see them in Safari but without any audio.
I have flip4mac installed which did not fix the problem.
Ideas?

I have Flip4Mac and the plug-in from perian.org installed (as well as Real Player, but this thing isn't real format).
It works fine on my machine.
Try perian as well.

If anyone knows please help?
I can see picture but not audio which I have seen before - Its driving me nut.
Before anyone asks - The computer is not muted.
Can anyone try and open a web clip from bloombergs home page and confirm audio?
Thanks

Can you check your setup to confirm this is not isolated?

Bloomberg TV Germany works just fine.
The U.S. stream has no audio. It's just not there - no volume setting, either (using the Flip4Mac plug-in).
I suspect they've ****ed it up, server-side.

I too don't get audio. German or US channel doesn't matter.

It's July 2008, and Bloomberg is still tone-deaf to Mac users, by only supporting WMV for video (with Flip4Mac and Real for Mac not working in Safari3 or Opera v9.51).
Here's their feedback site to get them to change their no-Mac policy.
