Default I cant view Realplayer or WMP videos on Topgear.com

Does anyone else have this problem? I can view any other type of video just fine but not on that website.

Yes I did the troubleshooting through their link but I still cant watch anything. I was curious to see the uncut version of news.

I had this problem so I re-installed real player and that seemed to do the trick.

Grab real player alternative, FireFox 3.0 and the latest real player alternative and I have no problems.

I am still getting problems with WMP but since real is working I haven't bothered fixing it. You could try "open in stand alone player" than save the asx file.

Same here. Real Alternative works like a charm.

Thanks guys, I know this topic didnt quite fit in the subject but I though this would be the best place to ask. I'm watching vids now on topgear.com with real player, I just had an old version of real player.

Thanks

Sorry if my rep is grey I am leaving positive rep
