Yes. Yet another web site that insists upon using Windows Media Player.

Error: PlayerDetect is not defined
Source File: http://mslive.sonicfoundry.com/Live/LiveViewer/Catalog/Catalog.js
Line: 17

Looking at the Javascript, it says:
'You must have Windows Media 6.4 player or higher installed in your machine.'

It looks like the javascript just does the equivalent of:

javascript:WindowHelper.CreatePopup('http://mslive.sonicfoundry.com/Live/LiveViewer/FrontEnd/Viewer.aspx?PresentationExperienceID=cf1a7bc3-8d70-48ee-86e7-072c7708cfc6&PopupAreaName=Viewer&PlayerType=WM64','Viewer',788,569,false,false)

but that's unlikely to work for us, too.
