Herring said he had issues -the same issues, in this case- with Firefox
and IE.


I've become really curious as to what John's problem is. Obviously
there is a common denominator somewhere that affects both IE and Firefox
but not Chrome.

I've had issues with Firefox not playing a video in the past but IE
*would*. It was always because Firefox was missing some plug-in and
installing it fixed the problem.

But why his computer won't play them in IE as well is a mystery to me.




Was just thinking about this. Many videos today are in .mp4 format
because it supports high definition files. Windows XP or Vista can not
naturally play .mp4 files. You have to use something like Quicktime to
view them. Maybe you can add the proper codec to allow it, but I've
never researched that. XP and Vista can play mpeg, avi and wmv video
files naturally but not .mp4 Windows 7 added .mp4 viewing capability.

On a browser an .mp4 is typically played in Adobe's Flash player which
makes them viewable, even though XP and Vista won't play a natural .mp4.

Given that, and since both IE and Firefox won't play videos (and I think
John said he has an XP machine) I suspect the problem is the Flash
player settings in IE and Firefox. Somehow when he installed Chrome,
the Flash player settings were incorporated.

I also thought at one point that "Adblock" was causing a conflict for
John. I've been using Adblock for so long that I forgot what browsers,
videos and even Facebook looked like without Adblock enabled, so I
temporarily disabled it. OMG! What a mess! Many YouTube videos make
you watch a 20-30 second advertisement before running the video. Same
with most of the network videos from news channels. Turned Adblock back
on fast.

Adblock doesn't block advertisements on HULU videos, I noticed. And
some of the network videos are catching on. I went to watch a video
posted by ABC news the other day and a notice came up to the effect of:

"We were unable to load the advertisement that precedes this video.
Advertisements allow us to bring you the latest" ... blah, blah, blah.
Meanwhile, a 25 second countdown was running and when it reached zero,
the video played.

It's not Adblock. I did the on and off bit with that after you mentioned it last time.

I think I've got the Flash player settings 'opened' up as much as possible. And, the problem affects
only certain videos, not all. Here's an example of one that plays well in Chrome, but will not play
in IE or Firefox.

http://www.velocityspeedmethod.com/dkls-special-aos/dk-4-apo/?inf_contact_key=084fded2875b47cc054c4ef17869c6daa 45e3281b4bcb334b069370c5c45631f

The Adobe Flash Player settings, which I get to by right-clicking the video, are identical for both
Chrome and Firefox, and the versions are the same. This is true for both the local and global
settings.

It's just weird. But I don't think it's Bush's fault.

I know you are tired of hearing this but that video played fine on my
laptop using Firefox.

Forget about those "global settings" that you see when you right click
on the video. They are meaningless in terms of simply viewing the video.

Somehow "Flash" is not enabled in IE or Firefox on your computer. I
don't know why not and I know you've installed it. I guess you'll just
have to settle for Chrome.

I've deleted Firefox and Internet Explorer (I thought). When I tried to remove IE8, it left IE7, and
I could not find it on the program list to remove. (Which I think, now, may have been because I
didn't 'repopulate' the list. I then reloaded IE8, without Firefox being present.

Still no luck with that video.

Screw it. I'm going with Chrome, like Hank or some other smart guy suggested. I'm starting to like
it pretty well.

There's a newer one, but I wouldn't mess with it if yours is working well. Or, establish a restore
point before messing with it. Mine is 12.0.0.41

If that's what you have and you think you recently updated it, you
missed some steps in the install process. You should have 12.0.0.43. Try
updating again. What you have may be corrupted.

Was just thinking about this. Many videos today are in .mp4 format
because it supports high definition files. Windows XP or Vista can not
naturally play .mp4 files. You have to use something like Quicktime to
view them. Maybe you can add the proper codec to allow it, but I've
never researched that. XP and Vista can play mpeg, avi and wmv video
files naturally but not .mp4 Windows 7 added .mp4 viewing capability.

On a browser an .mp4 is typically played in Adobe's Flash player which
makes them viewable, even though XP and Vista won't play a natural .mp4.

Given that, and since both IE and Firefox won't play videos (and I think
John said he has an XP machine) I suspect the problem is the Flash
player settings in IE and Firefox. Somehow when he installed Chrome,
the Flash player settings were incorporated.


I think I've got the Flash player settings 'opened' up as much as possible. And, the problem affects
only certain videos, not all. Here's an example of one that plays well in Chrome, but will not play
in IE or Firefox.

The Adobe Flash Player settings, which I get to by right-clicking the video, are identical for both
Chrome and Firefox, and the versions are the same. This is true for both the local and global
settings.

It's just weird. But I don't think it's Bush's fault.


Playing on Firefox says Flash 11.9.009.something, something, something....


There's a newer one, but I wouldn't mess with it if yours is working well. Or, establish a restore
point before messing with it. Mine is 12.0.0.41

If that's what you have and you think you recently updated it, you
missed some steps in the install process. You should have 12.0.0.43. Try
updating again. What you have may be corrupted.


Well, it has been a week now. But, that was also what's in my brandspankingnew Chrome! And, it
works, and I ain't f'ing with it!
