Re: help please ... metacafe is not playing

if you temporarily disable adblock + on that page/site does it work? Any software capable of blocking scripts like some firewalls + are you using hosts file?

Re: help please ... metacafe is not playing

hi all

please help me with this

do i really need another codes installed, just because only Metacafe not working, the rest are working quite fine.
even Firefox safe mode could not get Metacafe working.
tried to set WM player as default player, no luck here either, it just goes back to "use my current media player", do not know what are the bugs behind it.
only and only Metacafe just won't play at all in IE8 and FF3.5

thanks much in advance

There no need for any codec or extensions for playing flash video.

Re: help please ... metacafe is not playing

If it were a Flash issue..I believe he'd have trouble as well on other video sites. This seems pertinent to metacafe.

That is true,but does not hurt to try basic troubleshooting steps as for Meta Cafe "Funny Kid" video plays just fine for me.

Re: help please ... metacafe is not playing

You have to allow both metacafe and 'mcstatic.com' to run scripts at metacafe.com.
And I believe you may also be required to allow a cookie.

Also, In IE8, maybe you have to put those two sites in the 'trusted zone'.

thanks AB, will try right now and get back to you

edit: just tried, has to be »https://:, so no luck here again
thanks anyway, but, i found a way to play the clips from the metacafe using my default media player.
just copy the required part of embedded url from the clip and open it in my default player
