Alex, I'll be glad to share what I've learned through my wife's help. As far as she can determine, in the case, of gameday audio's embedded player the only thing you can adjust is the volume control. My volume is turned all the way up. There are no firewall issues and no pop up issues as both were investigated. There is also no evident mute button in the player, also duely omvestogated. With all due respect to what has been reported here, I personally know of several people, both blind and sighted who are recieving stone cold silence with game day audio feeds. I really have no idea why, and as a non-expert, I won't debate the question of whether the problem lies with me, or with some conflict between the player and my system.I can speak only about the facts involving my situation. In my case, I could listen to all exhibition games but stopped recieving audio with game 1 of the regular season. I can listen to every other audio feed at my disposal, and since virtually all my radio listening involves online streams, that's really quite a lot. That is why logic dictates that I not blame my computer just because others receive the stream without issues. Meanwhile I'm following up on all suggestions, whether gained through sighted or unsighted help. Another group member has suggested uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Media. It seems to me that's definitely worth a try. If I learn anything I'll be glad to report it and will pass along any possible solution. Aside from sharing anything I learn about a possigle fix that might help others with the same issues, I'm signing off on the subject.
