The Telegraph doesn't play for me either, I tried both Firefox and 
Chromium. Everything else seems to play better.

And its not a firefox issue..

Yes I got the same non-response on Chromium as I did on Firefox. I'm using 
64 bit Fedora 14. I uninstalled the 32 bit FLASH plugin RPM and I did an 
about:plugins on Firefox to ensure that I'm running the new 64 bit FLASH 
plugin by itself. The videos on xhamster definitely seem to play a little 
smoother. There is obviously something peculiar about the Telegraph. I'm 
in the US so I don't know if they are blocking access to non-UK readers.

I'm in Canada, and can view it with my 32 bit system.

www.telegraph.co.uk is an alias for telegraph.co.uk.edgesuite.net.
telegraph.co.uk.edgesuite.net is an alias for a1362.b.akamai.net.
a1362.b.akamai.net has address 67.69.247.168

Looks like akamai have a copy hosted on bell.ca here in London, Ontario.

Its all hosted by oolaya.com Or is that ooyala.com? anyway I got the 
same problem with their native content as well.

If you go to www.ooyala.com  I get another blank screen in the middle 
there too. I believe its a US based company.



I did report it to their support but I got an arrogant tech-droid 
'liniux is not important enough to be worth supporting'

I use the 64-bit Flashplayer beta, but it still says version 
10.lotsofnumbers, not 11.  And that Telegraph video doesn't play here 
either.  It doesn't even load, judging by the lights on my switch, 
router and cable modem.

The browser was not Firefox, by the way.  I'm using KDE's Konqueror 
browser, which uses the same plugins as Firefox.  Konqueror normally 
uses KHTML, but I've set it to use the WebKit HTML rendering engine 
instead, which is based on KHTML but more advanced, and which is also 
used by Apple's Safari - and that's a browser most of the nitwit 
corporate websites will support.
