"Error loading player..."message on PBS web site

I have installed the latest version of Flash Player and it is enabled. Since doing so, I haven't been able to watch "Antiques Roadshow" videos on PBS. I get this message, "Error loading player No playable sources found". I have checked and double-checked all my add-ons and everything is enabled. I never had this problem with an older version of FP. Have I overlooked something? Is it possible one has nothing to do with the other? Thanks.

Hi Mike,

Sorry about not giving more info. My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate and I have IE11 for Windows 7.The latest version of Flash Player would be 13.0.0.182. The strange thing is, checking with Adobe, it says it is not installed but in my 'add-ons', it is "enabled". I have tried all the instructions from Adobe to install at least a dozen times and I thought I had it. Obviously I do not and I am not sure what else to do.  Oh yes, Active X is also enabled. Thank you.

I may seriously take you up on that idea. I have had Opera and the major problem I had with it is that I couldn't do any online banking because my local bank's systems didn't recognise it. I do have 1 friend who does have it but he doesn't do anything online so it suits him. I might consider Chrome. Thank you!


Opera is based on "Chromium". In other words, it uses the same browser engine. If your bank's site recognizes Chrome, it should recognize Opera.
