OK...I'm dumb...how do you get vlc to play the links?

Thanks

Try copying and pasting the link into VLC manually
Media > Open Network Stream > enter URL and hit play
Can take a while for the pics to come through depending on connection

Open in VLC 2.08
and yes copy and paste them i usually just dump them in vlc using Ctrl-V to open url from clipboard

They are excellent quality

Thanks for the help fellas

I went to here and followed this tutorial

I now have left my firewall on, but changed the settings in windows firewall to the attached image.
I still get the same problem.

Any pointers chaps?

**weirdo** · 22-09-13, 03:00 PM

got the same version as you viewer
don't get any errors when pasting the link in manually but
links slow to open and stop/start here atm
took about 5 minutes before vlc would show pics
even the low def ones don't seem to open that well here
eurosports 1 seemed to be playing a promo loop most of the time

**viewer** · 22-09-13, 03:03 PM

Can anyone give me a different / similar stream to try and test if that will open in my vlc?

Thanks

**viewer** · 22-09-13, 03:09 PM

If I put this link in my browser

It automatically plays the stream via vlc

If I paste it into Media > Open Network Stream > enter URL and hit play...same old VLC is unable to open the MRL

Hmmmmm

**viewer** · 22-09-13, 03:29 PM

Weird...

These work from another post in this section
mms://ken-cdn220-is-1.se.bptvlive.ngcdn.telstra.com/bp_online_movieextra_high.

mms://cht-cdn220-is-2.se.bptvlive.ngcdn.telstra.com/bp_online_bpsport_high

More head scratching...

**apsattv** · 22-09-13, 10:19 PM

I''ll go back aan edit the original posting as the embedded urls are probably mucking things up.

Just tested

works fine, CLT20 cricket is on

you can also change the url at the end to a lower speed such as 700 or 1000

**viewer** · 22-09-13, 10:28 PM

Thanks Craig,

Your 1st link produces the same result...VLC is unable to open the MRL

The 2nd link worked first time.

Maybe something still not quite right for me for the 1st one

**apsattv** · 22-09-13, 10:33 PM

all work fine here
open vlc then click media , open location from clipboard, then paste

then click play

**kevin1341** · 22-09-13, 11:14 PM

Hi viewer, I have had a play with the streams that Craig post also.
Could not get them to work until I did another clean up with ccleaner to clean all the crap in FF and IE.
Why that fixed I don't now.
Forgot to say That I am using Windows 8 32bit

**viewer** · 22-09-13, 11:17 PM

Thanks Craig,

Dunno where clipboard is on Win 7....

I have been right clicking / copy and pasting the links into the location in vlc

Yep...win 7 32 bit as well, and using Firefox as browser

**apsattv** · 23-09-13, 12:16 AM

try pasting into notepad and confirm that you have the complete link?

speed can be changed for lower resolution if you edit the url playlist_1800, options are 700/1200/2500

next one
Took a minute, but worked

**apsattv** · 23-09-13, 01:55 AM

I would say its timing out because the connection is too slow.
Try to edit it to playlist_700 ?

**apsattv** · 23-09-13, 02:01 AM

Both links play here within 20 seconds.
