    I just took a gamble and subscribed for a month. I have the latest version of Firefox & Flip4Mac. I have only just managed to get it to work by trying out the high quality feed; but that works using Silverlight (whatever the hell that is...?)

    Alternatively, it works fine on Opera.

    It does work, but you might need to muck around, or do a bit of searching on the subject. It's a wonder I've got this far!

    Ill do some more mucking about then!

    Got a netbook as back up but the screen is about the size of a postage stamp, and imagine 4 hours watching that wouldnt do the cranium any good, or maybe use binoculars
  • Works better for Macs with Intel processors than the older PowerPC ones, as the older ones can't install the latest version of the Silverlight plugIn (which is needed to watch streaming TV broadcasts apparently).

    I also found that it was easier to watch using the Safari browser than Firefox, for whatever reason.

    Alternatively find a web site that is illegally re-streaming the broadcasts.
