repost this in the programming forum for a quicker response

you probably need to change your embed code to something that is cross-browser compatible

Programming? Why?
What App has to do with Coding which is the same as it was 1 year ago?
Besides, problem with stream effecting the source site as well.
It was working fine last week but then it went berserk.

You wanna help, then check browsers on your PC or appliances
and let me know if you have streams working.

  Streams aren't working on my PC. Used Chrome v40 and IE v11. Sounds like a technical issue with a better chance of getting a resolution if moved to Programming subforum

  What Am I missing?
  How Programming can be helpful for browsers?
  You can't program browser all you can do is to configure it.

  right - but the HTML code on the website that is embedding the adobe flash player is probably incorrect which is why it isn't working in IE and Firefox - so that is why you need to ask your question in the programming forum.
  Is that clear enough for you now?
  
  Thanks

For IE, check if it is blocking because it thinks the content might be unsafe.
There is a symbol in the browser bar. Don't know about the other browsers.

Manually uninstall Adobe Flash Player and reinstall the latest version from Adobe site only.

While it may very well be a programming issue, I beg to differ that the programming is the most likely cause. I have had adobe flash issues with IE and Firefox for over a year now, off and on, constantly crashing and this is happening on some big name sites that would surely have the programming expertise to correct them.

Have you seen how many updates the flash player has been issued in the past year? Seems like it is once or twice a week.

Thanks

now I've looked at the code using the inspect element in web developer add-on and that is a Google-specific iframe he has there which is probably why the streaming works in Chrome and not in Firefox and IE -
so it is a code issue hence why I said this thread should be in the programming section - but he probably should ask Google support as well - since it's their generated code

Thanks

Good then you should see streaming videos playing in amray index page.
Can you see video stream?

Imbedded flash text is cross-browsers neutral thus the same for IE, FF etc.
All it does it tells where to download player and where to go to get video

As I said above:
It was working last week
It's working in Chrome but not in other browsers
Original site that streaming videos we're playing have the same problem as we have

in addition:
older version of flash before very last 16.0.0.305 update have no problems

So the same "flash code" you want me to change is working

No it's not.

no your streaming is not working in Firefox 36.0.1
with the Flash plugin version 16.0.0.305

but I can view other Flash no problems - like YouTube videos and various Flash games.

so maybe there's a problem with the particular stream -

I'm watching CNN stream with no problems

Thanks

Did you tried IE and Chrome?
Apparently not or you would see stream is working in Chrome

I never said there are problems with other streams.
We have placed not working with different video and it's working in all browsers

Then explain how come it's working in Chrome?

Here is link to source site: radiomontecarlo.net/sezioni/5/video
The same problem.
Do you think site's webmaster don't know there is problem with different browsers?

At least you have answer why only Chrome is working, you aren't helping.

sorry I am not helping - I told you that you would get more help in the programming forum but you rather argue and treat me like shit - and fyi
I checked it in IE - version 11 - it's not working either - I don't have Chrome and will not bother to install it because I'm not a fan of Google -

you are being rude and obnoxious to the only person who's even looked at the code on your website
so you know what?
good luck with your problem -
I'm done -

Thanks
