Twinspires video trouble

[molson721]

Is there anybody else having trouble getting video? This is the 3rd day and I don't get any answers other than to blame my ISP. Is there anyplace you can get free video while I open an account with another service?

I don't use TwinSpires exclusively, but do use it and have used it yesterday and today. The video is working for me. I have noticed that the "Loading Video" is on screen longer than normal, but the video loads and runs well once loaded.

Have you tried streaming any other video like Youtube? Or have you run a speedtest like speedtest.net to see if your ISP is delivering enough speed to watch streaming video?

Also, If you are wireless, have you unplugged your wireless router's power source and plugged it back in to clear the IP Addresses and cache?

It never hurts to unplug any ISP router wireless or not every week or so and let it reboot. My U-Verse Gateway needs a weekly reboot or the errors get unreal.

You should also totally reboot your Computer on a regular basis instead of just letting it run or putting it to sleep.

I realize you probably know all of this. Just making sure you did not miss anything before you start the phone calls to the ISP.

Which track? A lot of tracks have free video for their own races.

Like Belmont.

Sometime I have problems with twinspires video in internet explorer but then switch to google chrome and it works there.

I believe Brisnet and Twinspires are both owned by Churchill Downs, so they are probably on the same servers.

Just got back on to Twinspires. Lets hope the issue is resolved.

Having had a similar problem, here is what I am doing. The version of chrome I am using is not happy with the Windows Media player I am using. Every time I open Chrome I have to re-install the media player.
The steps
Open Chrome
Open Extensions which is located in the upper right corner in the 3 bar window in the top browser window.
Delete the current copy of Media player
Open the download of the file from your documents (download file).
With both windows open drag the file for the player from documents to google window and it should self install.

I have to do this every time I open or close chrome.
And every time I use replays, I have to authorize the script used for watching said replays. Pain in the A##.

you should install the VLC media player instead. Works much better than windows media player for live video streaming and better quality, though it is not so good on archives such as trakus replays and radio archives.

WHAT is VLC? I would say inquiring minds want to know but at my age that becomes a lost cause.

i found it and downloaded it and for some reason I can not get twinspires to open. any thoughts?

thanks

My problems have been going on since last week. They blame my ISP but they are probably the problem. There was a day last week when everybody lost video till late in the afternoon and live video hasn't worked right since then. I wish this company would get out of the horse business because it is SO OBVIOUS they only care about the casino business.
Give me free programs for the track I wager on and LIVE VIDEO that works. IS that asking a lot? Recommendations anyone?

Since when is it the customers responsibility to solve Twinspires problems. Oh, I forgot, twinspires.com is not a casino site so the company does not care about the customer!
