Very nifty addon. You need the WMP plugin, which can be found here (http://port25.technet.com/pages/windows-media-player-firefox-plugin-download.aspx)

Pretty sure you'll need a video card to see it.


Or anything, for that matter. :nut:

How are you reading this if you don't have a video card? Haha. But yes, just download, restart Firefox, and watch

Any tips on how to get this sucker to work on OSX? I downloaded Firefox (was previously using Safari), downloaded the TV Fox addon, downloaded the Flip4mac plugin, changed my settings, and it still won't work.

When I choose a channel, the window opens up and there's a message on the top left that says "Click here to download plugin" with an image of a lego block. When I click, nothing happens.

Meh, every CBC feed i tried was offline or pre-recorded news. Discovery channel didn't work, and FOX was the only feed that seemed to be live.

You need the Windows Media Player plugin. I'm not sure if there's an OSX version, but the one I linked to in the OP works fine on Windows

Tried that one first and it didn't work.
