Re: Error when streaming NFB convention

[Edward Green]

Hi Ray,

Thanks, pasting the url into iTunes worked.

Yes, I have Safari set to open saved files.

Interestingly Voiceover didn’t report the error message by itself in Safari, it 
just said ‘HTML content’ for the meat of the page, which was empty when I 
interacted with it.  my sighted wife saw the error and clicked it with the 
mouse, then it spoke.  I made it happen again, and was unable to find the error 
independently.

Thanks again,

Ed

Ed, you've got something weird going on.  I use the iTunes feed just fine.  
Now, this morning, there did seem to be an issue with the stream but it's back 
up now.  One final point.  Do you have Safari set to open safe files 
automatically?  Here's another thing you might try.

1.  Go to the iTunes streaming link on the site.

2.  Copy the link to your clip bord.
3.  Now, open iTunes.

4.  Now, press Option plus u.
5.  Now, paste in the copied link.
Here's a final tip.  IF the stream stops, just press the return key.  This will 
force a refresh of the connection.

HTH.

PPS.  You don't need any extra plug ins to do this.

Error when streaming NFB convention

[Edward Green]

Hi,

I get the following error on both my Macs when trying to stream the NFB 
Convention using the iTunes feed at 
https://nfb.org/convention-streaming-schedule:
"This webpage has content that requires an Internet plugin
This page contains content of “audio/x-scpls” type.  You do not have the 
plug-in required to view this content."

Does anyone know what plug-in might be missing and where I can get it? I’m 
using Yosemite/Safari.

Thanks,

Ed
