Has anyone got Zattoo TV player (http://zattoo.com/) working in Mint 5?
If so, can you share the secret?
Thanks.

Re: Zattoo
That's strange.
I downloaded the .deb file from Zattoo's download page and installed it. Zattoo appears in the menu under Sound and Video but clicking it produces nothing.
Opening a Terminal and typing zattoo_player produces:
13:30:55 19/06/08 [MSG] Current locale is en_GB.UTF-8
13:30:55 19/06/08 [MSG] Welcome to Zattoo (3.2.1.14137)
13:30:55 19/06/08 [MSG] Further log messages will be written to /home/tony/.Zattoo/Data/logs/zattoo.debuglog
The zattoo.debuglog is empty - so no clues there.
Attempting to start zattoo using sudo produces:
(process:10377): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.16.3/gobject/gtype.c:2248: initialization assertion failed, use IA__g_type_init() prior to this function

Re: Zattoo
I'm in no way an expert or even intermediate at this stuff but could you check if you have "g++" and "make" installed in synaptic.
Also you did download the Ubuntu 8.04 version of zattoo?

Re: Zattoo
That's done the trick - many thanks!
It turned out that make was installed, but not g++.
It now works fine
