Hi!
Came back from my vacation expecting to watch my shows and the ABC player doesn’t play anymore…i didn’t change anything in my computer and I used to be able to play it fine…any easy fix?
Thank you!\P.

It looks like ABC is running the casalmedia script on their page. It freaked me out because I strive to maintain a clean machine and I thought I had picked up spyware. Turns out our friends at the network think it’s a keen idea to annoy the H-E double hockey sticks out of their patrons in an attempt to market to them. Nice plan, the commercials we willingly watch aren’t enough for you? Do you REALLY need to try and monetize through a shady channel like that? Boo ABC, just Boo.

I keep getting the:
“Oops
Our new video player is only available for:
Windows XP/Vista – Internet Explorer, Firefox
Mac – Firefox, Safari.
To watch, please download the appropriate browser.”
message.
I have Firefox, AND I’ve been able to see the episodes of Lost up to the one aired last week. What’s so different about this week? Why does ABC shun me so?

I am having a similar problem. Running Firefox it keeps asking me to return to the install page. I also get a popup with an error unable to load this page http://b.casalemedia.com/V2/62428/134428/index.html?abc.go.com/primetime/privatepractice/index?pn=index as you can see attempting to watch private practice.

Hi I used to love to watch the full episode player and now for the past month I only get a blue screen. I did the correct browser settings and put on my pop up enabler and still only a blue blank screen. Help. I miss it!

I can no longer launch the full episode player. It just keeps saying javascript void. I cannot get into the help. It will play the videos on sneek peeks of new show airing just fine. What can I do to fix the problem?

I use to be able to watch episodes on line at abc.com but now I get the following message:

I am using Safari! I even tried downloading Firefox and get the same message.

Great work, I love the quality of the playback and the performance. Could you hint to us some of the encoding that is being used for the project? Its obviously flash video, but what kind of broad encoding settings and codecs were you using (i know you cant break confidentiality clauses) anything you can share would be great!
I am a content producer as well and we are trying to maximize our video playback performance.
