Unable to Play video clips from EllenTV.

[Jats]

Hey anyone know HOW TO get the video clips on EllenTV.com to play ?

I am using Chrome and don't seem to be able to play any of the video clips.
Chrome is up to date, cache memory cleaned, flash updated---still does not work.

Anyone any ideas? Thank you.

Do you have any script blocking software active?

It wasn't playing for me and I enabled one of the blocked domains and it started working.

I should say I'm using Firefox and not Chroms, but it could still be the issue.

Hi James:

I am a little technically challenged on this one--- how and where do I unblock script blocking software?

I tried it with Micorsoft EDGE ---the video plays. It just does not like Chrome..... at least it plays on EDGE ...

Thanks.

I use an add on for Firefox called No Script.

It by default blacklists all domains, preventing scripts from those domains from being run in the browser.
It shows a list of domains being blocked/allowed on the current page and you can temporarily enable them, block them, or permanently enable them.

It operates on the model that certain websites are safe/desirable and others aren't. That isn't really an entirely valid assumption since sites can be compromised and thus be dangerous, even though in normal circumstances they are safe.

I would imagine chrome has similar software available, but I don't know that.

It is possible Ellen's site isn't coded to support chrome.

I personally don't like chrome. I don't really like Firefox's current UI since it seems to be that they are trying to look like chrome. I use an add on that reverts the ui to the most part back to the older firefox style.
