Can anyone get it to work? Other programs show fine for me but the one I want won't show. I quite fancy catching it before tonights highlights....

Please don't say who won!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Arse! I've e-mailed them to tell them the feed is dead but I doubt it'll do any good, looks like I'll be videoing the highlights.....

I think it only works with Silverlight from Microsoft.
There is a button to download it below the window.

Yup. Got that already though!!!

Not tried for this, but last time I had trouble, this worked.

* Once the player should be playing, but is only showing a black screen.
* Right-Click the player area and select Options, this will bring up a dialog, under the Video Acceleration section, click "Restore Defaults" and then click OK.
* It will give you a warning that playing streams may be restarted, click OK, and then the Player start playing properly once it has rebuffered.
