Send NBC an email to complain about no linux support, or no "working"

moonlight which isnt in a workable state last I tried it.

anyway, try this at hulu....... works perfectly.

Works fine here too - just tried it. On the other hand, sometimes any
video in this fashion (mplayerplugin & flash) don't work - CNN for
example. I'll sometimes get white screens, with general error - even
if I quit and rerun Firefox it doesn't always work. Then I try back
later, and everything's fine.

I wonder if some content requires Moonlight or a proprietary
Windows-only codec/method to play, and other content doesn't?



Doesn't work on my 64-bit AMD with Hardy and firefox 3.0.3.
It requires Flash version 9 and although I have installed the
work-around library npwrapper.libflasplayer.so it complains about not
having installed libflasplayer 9 or higher. I have the same problem with
youtube. I can however see other sites- apparently using an older
version of flash - without problems. I don't want to use a 32-bit
version of firefox (gives all sort of problems when installing).

On another complaint in this thread I think complaining to NBC has the
same effect as complaining to Adobe i.e. none.
