Can people see the cnn clips? > I just tried, and yes, for ca. 1 second I saw moving picture and heard the sound. Then the screen went blank (grey). When I tried CNN Live Video, the following error message appeared: UNSUPPORTED PLATFORM ERROR: This video is not supported on the current platform (browser/operating system). For technical issues, use the FAQ The fact that I could see the chosen clip for a second or so makes me think that exclusion of Firefox/Linux is deliberate. I'm sure someone on this list knows more about this... I'm running F8 x86_64 on a desktop box with IcedTea Java and Flash plugins. Youtube and many others providing video clips work just fine.
