I've got a nice mac, here and at work, latest browsers, can watch youtube and foxtel (payTV) stuff in HD over my stream, but gosh dang does TWMX suck the donkey nuts for me.

Really would like to watch this for instance... but just can't. Anyone else?

Yep, I've always had a hard time watching their vids. The old media player used to be all messed up with the low quality being high qualityHuh

Holy fark it actually worked fine for me on the '08 Mac! Woohoo

Happy new year by the way CrusherWink

You too bud!

Back in the day they hosted at Youtube, wish they'd go back to that, they've usually got some pretty good video content but their site is just so dodgy for me...

Same here. I haven't checked that site in years, literally. It's got some major lag issues and the content is "meh" at best.

yeah I like transworld a lot, really good photos and videos but they always have annoying player issues

What I have found works is click on the vid, wait a second then click on it again, then you can see it loading and it'll start, but yeah could be easier plus I've gotta turn off my Ad blocker to go full screen

I'll be honest, there isn't ANYTHING that doesn't suck about TWMX, so there's my answer. You're welcome. Happy New Year Crush, Aussies, and everyone else. Except TWMX, of course.

Thanks Guys. I consider myself more than computer literate and can usually get a work around, but fuck this site!

Happy new year to you all!
