The FS button at lower left seems not to work, even on (ahem) the other
browser from Redmond...

Lower left?

Anyway, the button also doesn't work in Firefox versions 40.0.3, 41.0b8 and
43.0a1, or my SeaMonkey 2.35.

I can't even access it with 2.35. I get the message "Error loading player": No
playable sources found.

Anyone know what that means?

Possibly a setting or addon blocking scripts or Flash or something the player
relies on?

In SeaMonkey 2.33.1 and Chrome 45.0, I initially see a still image with a play
icon in the centre. Clicking that, I get the message "We're sorry, but this
video is not available in your region due to right restrictions." Moving the
browser window onto the left monitor and reloading the page didn't help; I guess
they mean they don't like the UK ;o)

In IE 9.0, clicking the initial still image, it's replaced by text and form
elements which appear to be related to embedding the video, closed-caption
subtitles, signing in to add it to a favourites (sorry - favorites) list, etc.
It looks like that stuff should be rendered with CCS, and possibly scripting to
only show certain parts, but is rendered without any of that styling. Perhaps
they like IE even less than they like the UK...

Mark.

It works okay on Firefox 36 with Win7. I can also get it to work on another
machine with Win XP SP3 with AM2.35. I shut off the antivirus (AVG) but that
didn't make any difference. Also tried opening SM with the Default profile and
that did not help either.

If you haven't specifically set up multiple profiles in SeaMonkey, the profile named "default" is probably the one you use all the time anyway. To temporarily run SeaMonkey without add-ons, use:
  Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
or close all SeaMonkey windows and then:
  Windows' Start menu > All Programs > SeaMonkey > SeaMonkey (Safe Mode).

If you want to try with a fresh profile, you'll need to use Tools > Switch Profile > Manage Profiles > Create Profile to create a new profile, and then switch to using it.

Mark.
