I see that no one jumped on this, but I'm sure that some of you may have guessed that WMP was at fault.
Although it worked on other sites that I tried, it would not work on cmt.com.
The solution: I uninstall from Add/Remove, Windows programs. I'm not sure if that has any effect.
I downloaded and installed Real Player and set it as the default player.
It works perfectly.
Just more evidence that WMP is full of bugs.
Hope this will help someone.

Windows XP Pro, 2.8 ghz p4, 512 mb ddr,IE 6, Netscape 8.0.2, Windows Media Player 10 (required for site), NAV, Zone Alarm Free, Adaware, Spybot, Microsoft Antispyware.
I used to enjoy visiting cmt.com and listening to music and videos.
About two months ago, they added a lengthy promo to the beginning of each video. Since that time I have not been able to access the video or audio.
The promo and commercials play without a hitch, but no video. I've used the above mentioned browsers.
I've turned off pop-up blockers. I have gone so far as to disable NAV and Zone Alarm, but still no positive results.
I have also read on their site where others are experiencing similar problems, but I'm not sure if it relates to my problem. Others state that they have no problems accessing the media.
I have visited other sites, Yahoo, etc. and have not experienced any similar problems.
I would appreciate any input on this mystery. This used to work fine before they made the changes.
Any country music fans out there?
Thanks
