If I disable NIS 2004 completely the videos will play fine, but if I disable the pop-up blocker, or firewall individually it doesn't help. I have tried putting in the URLs in the pop up blocker as suggested above with no success either. Can anyone think of a work around for this without totally disabling my security? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8695930 Fri, 05 Dec 2003 12:06:28 EDT Re: (XP) MSN Video (Beta) player problem http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8665371 not quite right :

When trying to watch/play a video The MSN Video (Beta) player problem I have is that I cannot play any videos, directly or when I try to add to the play list, when the play list is viewed, there is a red X next to the video. The player control buttons is grayed out, non-functional when clicked.


I'm having the exact same problems. :(
Turning off my pop blocker, and firewall had no effect either. My guess is no more free content from MSN very soon. You'll have to subscribe to their "service" like AOL makes you do to use anything on their site. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8665371 Tue, 02 Dec 2003 12:23:46 EDT Re: (XP) MSN Video (Beta) player problem http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8662055 galileo757 : I uninstalled the pop-up stopper from panicware, disabled the Norton antivirus and firewall 2003 with no help. I tried the help file with MSN video beta player, my system exceeds the requirements and active scripting enable. Could you explain a HOSTS file to me?
Thanks :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8662055 Mon, 01 Dec 2003 23:57:52 EDT Re: (XP) MSN Video (Beta) player problem http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8643514 applelover : Do you have all of the requirements?
Did you add »betavideo.my.msn.com/video/ to the allow list in Pop-Up Guard?
Are you using a HOSTS file?

I had no problems playing any of the video available.
