Windows media player problem.
Hi all. When I try to play this, the media starts and at the bottom it says Opening media, connecting to media and the it says 'ready'.
If I press play then it goes through the whole thing again. I have turned off the firewalls and virus scanners and it is still the same.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong????
WinXP, Media player 10 all patched up.

Just tried it. Windows media player preference, he no work. Real player does. Try changing the preference (a link at the bottom of the player page on the webpage.) Didn't play the whole thing, but it was sounding pretty good, and looking pretty promising.

Each to his own, but I HATE Real player! I'd rather do without the clip than install that on my system - Yeeuucchh!
That's why I always go to Amazon.com to listen to samples - they give a choice of 3 for most stuff.
And the Beeb is migrating away from Real.

From the BBC website
Are all BBC sound and video clips available in Windows Media?
Not at the moment, however all BBC sound and video clips are available in Real media. Windows Media is being introduced on the BBC's News website at www.bbc.co.uk/news and we may offer it across all BBC websites in the future.

Isn't Real Player tainted with spyware or summat?
