Thanks for your help. Have gone to Chrome and since then Flash works fine. However only on the US server. The EU server still keeps buffering every few seconds even with Chrome.

That's something at least you can watch a whole episode without a problem.

True Bala. Hope they can make it work on the EU server in time.

Well that depend on your location

I can't actually believe you are trying to pass this off as an 'upgrade'. I've been a member of this site for many years and tend to buy my VIP points in bulk (even though I was actually warned by a friend not to in case something happened to the site) but I did it anyway- my own fault I'll know better in the future once I have found a new site to use. And I agree with others with have mentioned the lack of choice in window size being a big issue for them, it's either stupidly small or full-screen mode (where you can do nothing else) Neither of these options appeal to me.

i just wanted to say there was a thread about realplayer problem reporting and there was 18 pages but that was over what 4 - 5 years this thread has been open only a few days and it has 14 pages of issues i think that states a hell of a lot about what was better clearly it was realplayer not flash just wanted to point that out

Only LBJ can address that issue. We, the moderators, along with some members with a bit of tech knowledge, have been fielding most of the queries here. None of us can speak to the issue of size of screen. I'm sure LBJ will make a post when he has something to report on it.

i have made a sujestion to i think who is the creator about viptv i hope he reads it i sent it as" upgrade big mistake" i think everyone would be happy with it including him but we will see if he reads it and what he does and how he responds to me if he does i want to underscore again to the moderators you guys are really good all this moaning must be getting you down a bit but i most certainly am not directing my frustrations on you guys you are all trying to help

I'd just like to state after looking through this thread the argument for flash seems to be it was because members complained about RP (which I'm sure some did) however I did not and I'm sure many others did not. So for all those people who have spent years using this site and in this time have been loyal and uncomplaining I'd say we have a right to complain now that they have rewarded this loyalty by destroying what we loved about this site (for me that what be the choice in screen size and the fact it was easy to multi-task with rp- not to mention I've now had a few problems streaming and had to start again). Sure they might have pleased some people but surely they realised many many people were happy with the old system (we kept buying VIP points) and they would be upsetting a lot of them by making this change.. Personally I'd be a lot more understanding if a real reason was given for this change and the site wasn't just trying to pass it off as an 'upgrade'.

I know on another site, when RP updated, it was no longer compatible with the site, and we had to direct members to continue using the older version of RP and for those that had updated, to downgrade back to an earlier version. It's possible this change was done foreseeing that as RP continues to change, it would become incompatible with this site too. Flash is pretty much available to everyone. It has it's pros & cons, like any other viewer does. This site has worked hard over the years to make the site usable for all members, and I have confidence that admin & the techs are working to see how to make the new system work better for as many as possible. @babysexylexy I did not take your comments about the changes to be directed towards the mods, and I'm sure none of the other mods did either. We understand your frustration, and you are welcome to express it.

Says "stream not found" for both the US & EU links.http://viptv.net/index.php?sid=2&mod=tvp&movid=47115&urlid=451659

Try it again. I just tried it & it is working on the US server. Also, please report such errors in our Error Reporting thread.

Checked every aspect of my pc set up and it's optimal. Thought I'd try just once more....this time on the US server. Selected Fringe episode 20. Stream not found. lol Past frustrating, now its just comical. Sorry VIP , I've been a member since August 2007 but it's time to VERY reluctantly find another site (like so many others). I'd like to thank you though for the past nearly 4 years. You have been great and I've enjoyed my time here. I wish you all the best for the future. Kind Regards Jane

I can't believe you guys "upgraded" to flash. Flash is one of the biggest memory hogs ever written. However...the worst sin of all... No longer will the video pop out into its own little window that can be resized at will. I am now forced to either have a stupidly small viewing window, surrounded by an entire browser full of useless crap, or I can go full screen and the video looks like total and complete crap. Not cool. If you are going to stay with Flash, then you have *got* to find a video player that will pop out and can be resized. The one you are using now is like it is from the $2 bargain bin at Big Lots.

bala

I think that suggestion could be possible pop window that can resized at will but that will not sort out member who can't load full episode.

Hi Have just logged onto site after a week away, whats happened, and what is "Flash". I used to watch in RP because it gave me options, the main one was that was able to watch it later after I done my work on playback, can't find an option for this. Can someone help with the following? I tried to find a blog on the change and how to use but couldn't find one, I know this site tells us whats happened but I would like to know if i need to download anything to make my viewing better, if there is one could someone direct me to it if there isn't I think it would be helpful to explain whats happened and the how to get the most out of the viewing,not within a site but on the notice board. At the moment watching Desp Housewives, in the box at the right hand corner "Download this to RealPlayer" pops up, can I still do this?. Can I watch on playback at a later time, is so how? What has taken over from RealPlayer? I've sussed out that there are only 2 size formats, not to fussed with this as both come through with excellent quality. I know that there were problems with RP but RP itself is good, and we can't blame their upgrades with the problems on this site, it's seem that RP have moved forward but this site is moving backwards. I have had problems with RP but this was down to the compatibility with this site not with RP itself, and I agree with the point made earlier,18 Pages of complaints on RP, 11 with Flash!!!!!!!!!!! On another point, why when I submit my post does it change, I have just looked at it and it is not how I typed it??????????? [ Last edited by ritac-p at 5-3-2011 02:37 ]

During the weekend the site was changed to flash because real player has been abandoned because it no longer suitable for the viptv site so they decided make this site into flash site and transfer all the episode to flash. Real player isn't coming back this is the new site and nothing you can do.

Hi Bala That's understood, still doesn't answer my questions though.

bala

in the box at the right hand corner "Download this to RealPlayer" pops up, can I still do this?. NO that need taken off the site as real player isn't necessary Can I watch on playback at a later time, is so how? Yes you just let the episode buff and watch it later . Don't close the tab while it loads What has taken over from RealPlayer? A flash player called flowplayer has taken over from real player
