Came across this website containing a collection of online streaming TV. I was glad to see MSNBC.

9. It says that Firefox needs a plugin, but will not identify the plugin

and comes up that there is no appropriate plugin for it.
Weird!

10. It's RealPlayer

[RoccoR5955]

18. Real Player is malware.

I use VLC Player. It plays that surreal real stuff better than the "real" player.

[Moochy]

20. VLC Player is good, but its codec pack wedged my directv2pc player in vista

I agree with you re: Realplayer and its' ridiculous updater/install platform that shoves malware removal software down your throat. I have all of that disabled.

11. Same here, and no Help section to be found on the site.

:(

[Moochy]

12. see #10

13. Thank you!

17. If you are a Windows user, you really should get this

http://shark007.net/vistacodecpackage.html - for Windows XP or Vista

http://shark007.net/win7codecs.html - for Windows 7

It enables your Windows Media Player to handle just about any media format. You don't need to mess around with the crappy Real Player, or Quicktime or any of that crap. Yeah, I've used Media Player Classic, VLC, and all the others. I can say this actually works better.

[RoccoR5955]

19. Windows Media Player?!?!?!?!

:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:


Sorry, that just makes me puke.

I don't care how many codecs you load, trying to patch fecal matter with more fecal matter, just makes things smell worse. I'll have to try it on the Mac.

[Armstead]

23. "Is it safe?" (Shades of Marathon Man). I'm interested in this but...

some forums say it has malware in it.

Have you experienced any problems with it?

[Sebastian Doyle]

30. Never found anything in it with any A/V or spyware scanner that I've used

And I've pretty much tried them all.

15. tvpc works 4 me....but another one is always helpful...thanx

[brand404]

16. k&r

[LVZ]

21. OP's video stream not working now - but there are alternatives ...

That link does not seem to work for me.

This one always works: http://www.lasvegasmixx.com/msnbc-live2 (backup)
This one usually does: http://www.lasvegasmixx.com/msnbc-live (better quality)

Just click on the video white screen "play" button.

[brand404]

22. That "Always works" link you gave is a Handy Keeper..thanks nt

[quantass]

24. Thanks for the fresh links.

[quantass]

27. NO VOLUME Issue....Anyone else having such a prob with the new links?

[brand404]

28. No volume problem here Q...

Maybe the browser's volume is set to 0 (recall that Win7 can set each apps volume) or your QT plugin is corrupt.

[LVZ]

29. if a video feed loses volume, just try refreshing the page (press F5) n/t

[Armstead]

25. I think maybe the Olympics are messing with their streams

I tried to go and no MSNBC but some descriptions of feed from Vancouver

[Sebastian Doyle]

26. Yeah, I got that too.

So does that mean no MSNBC stream until the Olympics are over? :evilfrown:
