I got a problem! I'm currently using Win ME and using the firefox browser.

I have followed all of these instructions, but SopCast still doesn't work.

In the process of installing, it would run into an error everytime. I don't know why!

The error pop-up says...

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\WINDOWS\DESKTOP\SETUP-SOPCAST-1.0.1-2006-10-15.EXE

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.

I think i know why, but im still in need of help. When i downloaded that plugin on your 1st post, it said to restart firefox to use it. But when i restarted firefox, and check the "Extensions", i can't seem to find that plugin there.

Help please?

[vinzanity]

Aah i might have figured something out.

When i type about:plugins, i see that the "Mozilla Default Plug-in (filename: npnul32.dll)" is NOT enabled. Now the question is how do i enable it?

[vinzanity]

I'm still having trouble installing SopCast. Anyone got any advices?

[Admin]

Remove all old SOpcast files, everything, all maps, just the whole shit. Then download the full Sopcast and install it again, it will work then.

Right mouse, you can "turn it on" to true.

[vinzanity]

Good idea, gonna give that a shot right now.

[vinzanity]

Nope, it still doesn't work. :(

when i log in sopcast after installing
it says "logging in" but after a minute its says"conn. failed"
the problem is in my firewall config.

Any suggestions ?

Are you using Firefox 2.0?

I don't think there's a version for FF2.0 yet.....

Unfortunatly Sopcast still not available to FireFox v2.0.
You can use this plugin.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/35/
It allows you to right click on webplayer page and open it as IE.
Not perfect but good while wainting sopcast action.

[Scosmico]

Other option is install the sopcast player.
Here you go.

[gnuh]

Select the security.classID.allowByDefault and set the value to true.

I wonder if this is unsafe for my computer ?

this firefox plugin worked fine with me on XP but since I've had Vista it won't install. Any hints?

[Admin]

I guess it's a Vista issue, maybe you should get back to XP ...

running on windows XP professional + service pack two


sopcast works fine using the direct links from the myp2p page


your firewall needs to allow sopcast to connect through it don't forget
