[gui-talk] strange problem.

Ken:

I did a bit more sleuthing on using the new Pandora site with Internet explorer and they suggest a number of changes to rectify the problem including installation of the Chrome plug-in and changing some Internet privacy zone settings and allowing pop-ups, none of which I am willing to do. Nor am I willing to allow Pandora as a site not checked by antivirus software. So guess I'll continue to use Hope as this allows me not to change settings.

When Pandora fixes things so default settings of I E will allow it to play, I'll try again. BTW, I have a Pandora1 subscription so one would think the site would at least allow me to log in before deciding whether or not to harass me or engage in measures such as zapping cookies etc. IMO one cannot be too careful.

Mike

Hi list members have asked this to support from blip and getting no reply.  So maybe someone can help.  when trying to listen to songs and decide whether or not to post all the songs that are just audio play correctly but on internet explorer if a song is a video the clip will loop the first 10 seconds over and over and over.  only way to stop it is the hit next.  I only have had this happen yesterday and today.  I’ve installed the latest flash player flash player 11 but it doesn’t clear it up.  I have to use system access to go on blip.fm on internet explorer because jaws can’t read the songs and the places to preview or to blip as links it only sees it as texst.  on firefox it’s even worse something freezes the browser completely and it won’t even shut it down like it can’t load the page.  System access to go can’t see it either and when NVDA is running on Firefox on the site it doesn’t seem to know what next means even in a list view unless I’m on my own playlist.  in Firefox the site plays normally.  I tested it going to something I had wanted to preview directly on youtube and it played perfectly.  I decided I didn’t want the track in question.  Even songs previously blipped don’t play right if they are videos.  it’s almost as if what ever is playing is caught stuck in the flash player.  does anyone know why this is happening and if this is affecting blip will it affect last fm too?  Also a related question to mike about pandora.  the new site is using HTML 5 and I for the first time saw actually what is platying using firefox.  haven’t tried it with firefox 7 yet but do we now have the access to pandora we diodn’t have without the Hope client?  BTW hope is no go, don’t have a credit card.
