Dear all,

Cant view any video from the BBC website-www.bbc.co.uk-can listen to audio-anyone know how I can change video resolution or a fix so I can watch streaming video from this site-in fact any video?

Cheers

JP

Hi,

Here's what I do to get the BBC News 24 video working:-

1. Goto http://news.bbc.co.uk
2. Click on 'Watch Live BBC News 24'
3. Goto to the bottom of the screen and select 'Launch in stand alone player'. Media Player should open and start streaming.

I think in the past I may have selected 'Real Player' for the video streaming (if it asks).

Nik.

My experience is that it worked initially for me a few weeks back when I first got my N800 but since then I get the 'video resolution not supported message'.

Also I notice that the pages rarely finish loading and stick at 13/14, etc. So whether it is an N800 issue or a BBC one I can't day.

FWIW the attempt at watching the same video on my Vista computer crashes Firefox - and that used work a few weeks ago too.

Contact nokia for what?

This is a streaming issue not a "Nokia" issue...
