    Fairly annoyed......

    .....because I can't get any of the video on this site to load. I love alot of these performers and am familiar with most of the tunes. Now, I'd love to see the video. Can any of you get them to work? Is it because I'm not in the UK that the videos aren't working?

    Thoughts?

    Since it's BBC, my thinking is that we're blocked because of agreements with that BBC in the USA cable channel. They won't let you run them because they're saving them up to run on the cable station here...not giving them away for "free", as it were.

    I have seldom been able to load things from the BBC. Sometimes, but seldom.

    I'm not having any luck. And I've watched and enjoyed BBC America, but it's not really worth the extra money in my experience. Just let us have some videos and maybe we'll be enticed to get the channel!

    It is a hassle, it's something in their setup.

    I was able to get it to work a while ago but I can't remember how.

    You'd get no picture in the frame if it was a plug in issue.

    You'd get a country warning alert if that was the problem.

    Trying it in mac explorer, safari and firefox doesn't work.

    The stand alone checks my system and says it's fine and hi-speed but nothing happens here.

    I think one of their techies visits here so hang on a while.
