Very close to running Linux full time, if only....


Hi, if anyone can help me in getting to play the live stream of these 3 tv streams on ubuntu in any browser, I will be enormously thankful.

Here are the sites:

http://www.itele.fr/direct
http://www.bfmtv.com/mediaplayer/live-video/
http://www.francetvinfo.fr/en-direct/tv.html

Access to these three feeds is what is stopping me from adopting Linux full time!

Appreciate your input

Breezer

Hi...

I can report that all three sites worked fine on my copy of Lubuntu 16.04 (64 bit) using Chrome, version 54.0.2840.71 (64-bit.) However, I only tested the pages you linked to, I didn't navigate anywhere else on the sites.

I suspect the problem you're having may not have to do with Linux itself per se but perhaps an issue with the flash player you were using or something else. I think at all three sites, the videos required flash player to be used. What player were you using and what version? Also what distribution and version of Linux were you using? What is the brand and model (and model number) of your system?

Regards...

All three sites worked just fine running Linux Mint 17.3 with the following browsers; Firefox, Chromium, Seamonkey, and Opera.

It would help if you would let us know what distro and version of Linux you are using?

All three worked for me using Google Chrome on Ubuntu 16.04, no issues at all. The first and third in the list worked in Firefox as well.

Op (Piras) logo in posting profile says he is using a chromebook.

Then Ubuntu is mentioned.

Should probably turn adblock off I bet. Plus make sure flash is installed in Ubuntu.

Flash 11.2 works on those sites.
