Problems w/Media Player 11

by SamuelS Jan 3, 2008 11:53PM PST

Hello all.. I have a new Lenovo T61 w/business Vista installed. I Am trying to use the windows media player to listen to an online radio station, WHNZ (whnz.com). I receive a message that a plug in is needed: Application/x-mplayer/2. Although there has been no problems listening and playing this station on the machine which uses WinXP sp2, there is here.

I tried to dl media player again and could not install as I have the most updated player etc.. and could not.

I use SeaMonkey 1.1.7 on both machines. Any ideas as to what can be done or tweak for this? Thank you...

Sorry, did I give you the wrong forum link?

Ouch. Sorry. Try http://forums.cnet.com/5204-6142_102-0.html?forumID=5&tag=forum.fd

Also, be sure to include what firewall you installed, the settings, your isp name (some block sites), the router make, model, settings, etc so that members won't ask for this.

Also there will be pain with WMP in SeaMonkey so try it in IE.

Rob,

thank you for the link. Yet that is for XP, is that where you mean for me to visit with Vista? I will go and find out if there is some additional pertinent info.

Thanks again,

SamuelS
