I have Orcon at home and access to a Paradise network elsewhere.

neither of these two videos seem to stream (NOTE: the Tv3 one streams the 10 second intro but not the video)

Does anyone else find this is happening to them?

Thanks for that - confirms my experience on two providers.

ok I installed the windows MP player plugin for firefox as per the TVNZ on demand website help tips and now that video plays. I did try it in both IE and FF so must be a TVNZ on demand and flash quirk.

The TV3 one does not have a WMP player option. The video fails to play in both IE and FF.

The tv3 video seems to be playing fine here. I'm on orcon+ using firefox 3.6.13 and flash 10.2.152.26.

Both working fine for me on Paradise using both IE and FF.

How old is your version of Flash?
