IMDB.COM is a handy site to check out new and old movies and DVDs. But their trailers and other videos won't play. I just get an empty square box where the video should play. Their FAQs have this:
How do I get the video to play on my computer?
You can begin to play the video by clicking on the triangle "play" image sitting in the middle of the video player on this page.
If you do not see a video player on this page, you may not have Flash installed on your computer. To play a video, you need to have Flash 8+ installed on your computer. Versions of Flash are available for Mac, Windows, and Linux, and can be downloaded free of charge here.
If you have Flash 8+ installed on your computer and you still cannot see a video player, you may have installed Flash blocking or ad blocking software which prevents you from seeing this Flash video. To see the video, you will need to disable your blocking software on IMDb.com.
I installed the latest (v10a) Flash Player and put IEs pop up blocker on "low" security and added imdb.com to the "allow" list, all to no avail.
I have Win XP and IE 7. YouTube and all other internet video I have tried to play lately work fine.
Thank you for any ideas?
The web site where the videos won't play is:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0312004/
Here is a screen shot of what I see when I try the videos:
