Hi. I'm trying to listen to a radio station's online thingy but it keeps telling me I'm missing a plug-in but it can't identify which one. It says I need Windows Media Player, which I have. I'm on a Mac. Any ideas? There's a marathon of the morning show i listen to to benefit the UC Davis Childresn's hospital. They will be on air for 29 hours straight.

I don't know how that evil software works, I can play WMP files "sometimes", but every now and then it says I'm missing a plugin. Even when I try to access the *same* file.
WMP is EVIL.

yeah, i can play files that download first but this "Listen Live" crap no workie-workie.

Have you tried clicking "Play"?

HAHAHAhah
Seriously though, I think there's a conflict between QT and WMP and QT tries "first" and can't find the plugin, which means WMP never gets a chance to try.
Remember, I said THINK. I'm sure someone will reply to this thread who actually knows.

sometimes if you open the WMP app first, it will play it... and sometimes i can copy and paste the link into WMP app, but i have the same issue where it seems like "luck"

yeah, I think i got it to work, but it's playing music, not the show I listen to. I'm hearing that it's like a crapshoot for other people, too, regardless of platform.

(Feb 22 07, 09:09)Resting my legs :( I was at a seminar today and had to stand up/walk around for about 9 hours straight. I just realized today I have mad respect for people working in stores who can manage.
What are you doing pumpkin?
