I also did try the proms examples, but failed for the same reasons here. I need to check to see if there are any 'permanent' test streams for this so people can experiment and develop. Didn't bother me then as I'm happy enough with the stereo R3 stream. Its a dilemma from my POV as I'm reluctant to install Chrome and prefer FireFox. But I have the impression that FF simply don't want to impliment support for this. If so it'll be a real PITA for UK FF users at such time as the BBC switch to it. I can't be sure, but I guess they *will* at some point once they're happy it works. Hence the tests. I don't personally have much interest in surround sound via lots of speakers. But I'd have been interested in the binaural 2-channel. Oh well, I'll find out eventually even if I'm given no real alternative to Chrome. That said, isn't someone doing a 3rd-party add-on that might let that work? I've seen mentions on the web but nothing that makes sense to me as its an area I've not paid much attention to in the past.
