    Was wondering does anyone know of any websites that show horse races that people may have missed during the day.

    For instance, missed the Dante today and was wondering where I can watch it.

    ATR's very good for irish racing and its free to view. The RP charges you.

    Having had to deal with using an old NT based Pc in work I was unable to connect to streaming features due to the old version of internet explorer on it. :rolleyes:
    I had to switch to using Mozzila (as i could not upgrade the version of explorer to a high enough level due to system) to support the newer video features and plug in s, check your explorer version..

    A few things other things could try/check...

    1. clear all cookies and forms ( find this by going to the tools and selecting either internet options E7 or Options in Firefox) some cookies will block/interfere with other website functions.

    2 Codecs maybe, however most sites will inform you if you need to download additional plug ins to run their features, they also will provide a link to source the required plug in (usually including the codecs required)

    3 are you an a secured broadband router if not you may have others sharing your service which could hamper the streaming feature.
    :eek:

    wouldnt claim to be an expert in any way but the above have worked for me in the past! Hope get sorted :)

    Mostly watch from ATR archive (usually online even few minutes after race actually has run) and occasionally use Youtube.. Have not tried the live racing streams yet so can not comment.

    A good find Though was TVU networks to watch ESPN last year for the breeders cup live. :)

    I had the same problem for months! ATR and most places use windows media player.

    Open up Windows Media Player...

    Click Tools
    Click Options
    Make sure the box which says 'connect to the internet (overrides other commands)' is clicked


    I don't know why my settings had changed, but it had! The above fixed it.
