I started playing around with the solutions suggested on this site and now ESPN videos work.

I don't know exactly what I did to make them work. I will probably have to reinstall to make absolutely sure. I think it was Agent Switcher.

I was not clear at first on how to set this up...

Edit: We must be a real threat to Apple for them to try and lock us out of watching movie trailers. It is sad that we have to jump through hoops to get movie trailers to play. We need trailers in ogg theora so we do not need Apple's proprietary codecs.
Thank you for this tip, exploder. Glad that this can be fixed with an easy solution like this. Was looking for a solution like this for a netbook I bought from this store for quite some time now.

Curious it works out of the box for me. The Pedro Aldomavar film looks good.

I'm guessing that there are a few things that work now without having to jump through hoops - that did not work in 2009.
