Cant play the videos at all...:(

[matthe14u]

Hi all

Recently signed up to this site and it is a brilliant site, the pics are amazing. However, I cannot play any of the videos at all?. I live in the UK, have a new PC and have broadband but nothing happends, just the egg timer and nothing more?...I know there have been some probs with the vids but it seems that everyone else at least gets the videos loaded up?. I have no probs on any other sites.

Anyway, sorry to moan, the site is really very good but it is frustrating when I cant watch the videos which I should imagine are very good.

Take care

The vids have been fixed and should play just fine. They are just MPGs which everyone that is on a fast connection should be able to play without needing any special plug-ins.

What is your OS? What browser are you u***g? They are large files, some over 100 megs, what is your connection speed?

Can you play MPGs from other sites?

Hi Cleo

I have no probs at all playing from any other site, thats why I am so confused that nothing at all happends? sorry, this must be frustrating for you with so little info to go on..

Cheers

Are you running some sort of firewall or something like that? The security software on Angel's site does have to authenticate you each time you click on a vid so if you have something blocking your info like a firewall this could be a problem.

What happens if you right mouse click and choose save to your hard drive.

Hey Cleo

I am able to download to my hard drive and play them from there, just done that with the solo mpg...

I have Norton antivirus internet security running..do you think it could be that?, I have disabled it and will reboot my PC soon and try playing them directly from the internet as ideally I do not want to download all the movies to my hard drive..

I will let you know how I get on, but many thanks for your quick responses and help so far.

There are issues with Norton which will not allow certain sites (nothing to do with hardcore) - you have to set up Norton to allow sites in you trust - this site is one of them - I personally have no problem with doing that here as I do not expect any virus from here (unlike other'free' sites) - however as a non broadband user the size of the video files is of no use to me
