some personal, more technical – by Thomas Einwaller
Since some days the ORF (the Austrian national public service broadcaster) started his video on demand site http://tvthek.orf.at/. I found it quite nice but to make use of it I had to install the Windows Media Player Firefox plugin otherwise it did only work in the Internet Explorer.
Another problem my grandma had with it was that the Windows Media player always stopped directly after starting the video in the browser. Opening the URL in the standalone Windows Media Player application showed the error that the protocol was not supported. Doing a quick google search for that error brought up this Microsoft knowledge base article. After opening a command line running under the Administrator account issuing the following command resolved the problem:
regsvr32 wmnetmgr.dll
