I installed Trisquel6.0.

When I try to see a "Democracy Now!" video stream, video screen is black and no video is played. Please see for example:
http://www.democracynow.org/shows/2011/12/16

And I click "DOWNLOAD:VIDEO" text, then there emerges an error message:
"Video can't be played because the file is corrupt."

Are there any solutions?

Please instruct me.

Thank you.

It works with GNOME Web (Epiphany web browser).

I too get that corrupted error thingy, yet if I right click and save as... it works. (after a slow download)

Installed epiphany browser.
"DOWNLOAD:VIDEO" link worked with epiphany webbrowser. Thank you icarolongo.

I downloaded whole mp4 file, and I can see it later with totem player. Thank you lembas.

I still have a question:
"Democracy Now!" video stream can't be seen, whereas YouTube video stream can be seen.
Is there any way to see "Democracy Now!" just same as YouTube?

Even with flash (gnash) disabled and all cookies blocked, this method works for most video/audio files.

The 'unplug' add-on plus VLC media player from Trisquel Applications will stream or download.

Right click on the video - click the Unplug icon (green fish) - click download (or copy the link and paste into the VLC player to stream)

Keyboard commands: Alt + F2, type VLC, click run, Ctrl + n, Ctrl + v, Ctrl + p (or just click buttons)

Enjoy audio/video freedom and welcome to Trisquel.

Download the video and play it with one of the video players. Below the flash window there's a link that says "More Formats." Click on that and at the top of the screen you'll find links for the mp4 file and a torrent for the mp4 file. I use the torrent then keep it open just to help them out a little. I watch it almost every day and it works just great.
