Hi, is there any reason why I'm not able to play the silverlight videos on Channel 9?  I am able to play all other silverlight videos and apps on other websites, except for channel 9 and the rest of the partnet sites (channel 10, 8, mx, edge)

Whenever i try to play the videos it just directs the video to play in WMP 11.  I read that there is a script that detects the browser in another post, is this the reason why I get directed to the wmv version?

 

Was able to find a workaround for playing silverlight videos in opera, need to mask as firefox in opera settings.

 

Preferences -> Advanced -> Content -> Manage Site Preferences -> Add channel9.msdn.com -> Network Tab -> Mask as firefox.

 

hope this helps anyone using opera.
