Re: ntl Telewest and Big Brother 7 News.
I also now have the live button but each time the media player opens it crashes my IE. Re-booted and still the same problem. Tried Firefox and although the media player opens there is no steaming media and the screen just says 'Ready' at the bottom.
Any suggestions?

I am on 10 MB connected via Ethernet and can get it. Honestly the video is running but the picture doesn't show when you do print screen.

I'm able to access BB+ stuff from behind my router, just couldn't register for it going through my router.

i know, i was intending that you didnt need to use your USB connection to get it

Yeah, make sure your cookies are set via firefox/IE for broadband plus [i.e so you get the broadband plus stuff rather than the sign up for it] and then
navigate to http://www.ntlworld.com/broadbandplu...rother/ews.php and the stream should open up in a stand alone media player.

Cookies are set so I automatically sign in to BB. Still the same. In Firefox the media window opens and sits there blank but saying 'Ready' at the bottom.
In IE the media player window opens and then IE crashes.
The web link takes me to a completely blank page.
Weird.
Maybe I need to do a repair install of XP.

Re: ntl Telewest and Big Brother 7 News.
Solved the problem of IE crashing. Rolled back media player from the beta version 11 back to version 10 and all plays fine now.

Re: ntl Telewest and Big Brother 7 News.
Does not work with firefox.... the way i have it set up, and that is to work with the other 99% of the internet. Come on get your plug-in`s sorted out ppl.
Works with IE.
