"Lite" Player

[berlinwahl]

Hey,

I am rather new to this.

On the link page there are some links such as "sopcast lite" or "tvants lite"

Are these a different program from the main program?

Ones labeled "sopcast" or "tvants" work for me, but ones with an appended "lite" take me to the fsi information page.

How do I get these to work?

Thanks.

they are just a web based version of the software that uses an embedded version of the player, some people have problems opening links in the applications so we created the lite versions to combat that.. they also have chat boxes so you can chat to other members during the matches!!

As accie has pointed out most of them will only work with IE.. there is a plugin for sopcast that enables the player to work in firefox, the link is on the sopcast lite page.

If you do have mozilla firefox there is an IE tab plugin available that would enable the player to work whilst using firefox! It takes firefox and toggles the page into IE without having to open IE, just click onto the ie logo once the page has opened..

Here is the plugin download page, choose your version

I was using IE already. Thanks, for the advice with the plugin, I can now open links without "lite" in Firefox.....

All link with "lite" still do not work for me however, they all redirect to...

http://www.fsicrew.info/

And there does not seem to even be a way to get the address to paste into the player.

I forgot to mention in my first post that I am using Vista, could this be the problem?

Oops....thanks again,

It took me a while to realize the "sopcast software" link is equivalent to "sopcast"....I ran Sopcast as administrator and I can now get the links to work.
