Hello all, not sure if this is the place yet here goes...
I have SM 2.0.4 using Vista business, I have used the following website,
http://dukeandthedoctor.com/category/listen/
and click on the part of the page which shows "On Air Now", I get the
pop-up for the feed to start. After opening, the message "Install
Missing Plug ins..." appears.
This is a recent issue. Any ideas as to what I might have done to incur
this and how to repair? After all, I do have all the plug ins etc... or
so I thought as WMP works with other radio stations.
Thank you,
SS
I've seen similar problems regarding Flash. They generally result from
invalid "sniffing" for "Firefox" instead of "Gecko" (where sniffing can
be justified at all). For an explanation of "sniffing", see my
<http://www.rossde.com/internet/Webdevelopers.html#sniff>.
To defeat sniffing, use any of the various extensions that allow you to
spoof Firefox. For an explanation of "spoofing", see my
<http://www.rossde.com/internet/intr_gloss.html#spoof>.
You can do that, but it's one more thing to track, update, etc. You can also go
into about:config and select "useragent" in the select box. Right click and
define a new string value called general.useragent.extra.firefox with a string
value of "NOT Firefox/3.5.3" (or 3.0.11 for 1.1.xx). This will cause sniffinf
for firefox to match and everything to work. And you need no extensions to maintain.
