Streaming TV Episodes

I really want to dump vidilife and their horrible advertisements. Can someone please see if this video will stream for them? It will take a while for it to start.

It wants me to download some plug-in.

That's because I'm using WMP to stream the videos. Youtube, myspace, vidlilife and other video sites all use macromedia or shockwave player. I don't want to use those primitive players. No one uses WMP to stream anymore.

Macromedia and Shockwave? Primitive? I don't really believe that. And I don't want to download a new plug-in. I think I have enough plug-ins as it is.

Okay, I can stream it fine. Although I got bored of waiting and just pressed play, and then got my come-uppance by the video freeezing on me.

Crashed Opera really bad. I don't know what you did, but my Windows Media web player thing popped up, so you aren't using flash.

I waited and it would never load for me. No biggie, just glad I already have all the tv episodes either downloaded from your site before, and on dvd.

Okay, I've analyzed the problem. Apparently, it doesn't start to play the video until the video is 100% downloaded! This isn't streaming! It's just download then play in your browser. -_- I need to write a command that will tell it to start playing what you have of the video before it's fully loaded. I've looked all over the net, but it wasn't of any help.

Any suggestions? C'mon. I know I'm not the only one here who knows about web design.

Try this link:

It should bring up a small window. Just click the link and say "open with".....whatever program you have like windows media player or VLC. It should stream the video, even though there's no real video player in the browser.

No good there either....locked up theKMPlayer (VLC alternative and works in the same way).
