Giro on a Mac??
Any Mac users try getting the OLN feed? The web site says they only
support M$. For those who watched today, is there no sound at all or just no commentary? Are there any other alternatives to Outdoor Lame Network? RAI Sport just had guys playing pool without cues, but no Giro, wtf?! |

Ever try VMWare? |

Trust Hein to cut a deal like that. For the OP, apparently they've put some sort of security plugin on the OLN feed so it doesn't run on mac, even with Windows Media Player (which does.) I'm watching the live feed off RAI's website. jc |

RAI Sport just had guys playing pool without cues, but no Giro, wtf?! mplayer works pretty well with Linux in the short amount of testing I've done so far with some Windows type files. It looks like it is available for Mac OS-X too... http://mplayerosx.sourceforge.net/ I don't know if it works with the OLN feed, but it's free software so give it a try. -- Mike Iglesias Email: University of California, Irvine phone: 949-824-6926 Network & Academic Computing Services FAX: 949-824-2069 |

And you contribute towards saving the environment by re-using the rbr imprinted paper in your toilet, quite an appropriate usage I would have thought. |
