They really need think about dumping real player and change flash video player -practically all video streaming site have this as standard.Author: codebreaker Time: 3-23-2011 10:45 Subject: Reply 24#24 bala's post
But why have two sites showing in the same format like TVfull but the should think about all the hand held devises because that would be a game changer in my opinion Author: bala Time: 3-23-2011 10:49 Subject: Reply 25#25 codebreaker's post
I am talking replace VIPTV site as flash site so they won't need to have 2 sites.
Standardise it into VIPTV site.

There is a couple of firefox plug-ins i like but not enough to use version 4 Author: bala Time: 5-22-2011 23:36
Chrome has too many apps and extension except colour tab which one thing i liked about Firefox. Author: bala Time: 6-23-2011 09:47 Subject: Firefox 5 hands-on review
Mozilla has pushed out an update to its browser in the shape of Firefox 5, but users will notice little difference over the previous version, with most changes coming under the hood as security and stability fixes.
Available to download from Mozilla.org now, or via Firefox's own automatic update tool, version 5 is an 8.5MB download that installs as smoothly as every other update we have tested.
However, despite the jump from 4.0.1 to 5, there does not seem to be a huge difference between the two versions, at least not in appearance.
In fact, the only visible difference is the addition of a check box on the 'Privacy' tab of the Options menu making it easier for users to enable or disable the 'Do Not Track' feature introduced in Firefox 4.0. As before, this simply flags up to web sites that you do not wish to be tracked, and relies on the site itself to respect your wishes.
As with previous Firefox updates, Mozilla claims a boost in performance and better support for new technologies such as HTML5, along with a number of bug fixes.
We ran Firefox through the commonly quoted SunSpider test for JavaScript performance, and found an improvement of 34.1ms with the benchmark returning a result of 330.8ms for Firefox 5 compared to 364.9ms on Firefox 4.0.1. Both tests were run on the same Windows 7 PC – a boost of about 10 per cent.
Also new is support for CSS animations, which allows web site developers to produce simple animations, without the need to resort to JavaScript code. Not many web sites will have support for this feature at present, so Mozilla has a developer page with a handful of basic examples showing scrolling text moving across the page and growing and shrinking in size.
On the security side, Firefox 5 also addresses some concerns over the WebGL API for in-browser 3D graphics by blocking the use of cross-domain elements as the source for WebGL textures. Mozilla warned that this may break some pages that already use WebGL.
As with previous releases, Firefox 5 still supports Windows XP, which is a bonus for users still running the older platform, and we found no problems with the add-ons that we have installed.

Yeah, I think I read quite a few people had that issue when trying to go back. They change too often, and remove things most people like. It's becoming really annoying & rather frustrating.Author: codebreaker Time: 4-20-2012 02:50 Subject: Firefox 11
After such a long time sticking with 3.6 I have just installed 11 and as before real-player don't work but as that is going next month it's not going to be a problem, I might un-install real-player as it was only VIP I used it for

A couple of things I have noticed is no spell check until you installed a add on and the other thing is it doesn't remember multiple pages when closed which was useful if you had to restart your computer
