Site works for me. see screenshot Can you show your issue? Is the issue getting to the site or just playing videos?
Did you try Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode?
Did you clear your browser cache? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/clear-cookies-and-site-data-firefox

Thanks for the reply, yes I've cleared the history, cookies etc. In troubleshoot mode, this doesn't work either. On edge (?) the site works perfectly. It's nice of you to help me, I appreciate it.
Oh stop it. We are all here to help. Can you help us by showing what you're getting? What security software are you running? If you're running Windows Pro version, I would test in the Sandbox to confirm. https://www.howtogeek.com/399290/how-to-use-windows-10s-new-sandbox-to-safely-test-apps/
Thanks, I can't use Sandbox. In the history: I had Windows 10 (and Bluewin TV worked perfectly), I switched to Windows 11 but with all the problems generated by this version I came back to Windows 10. Since then, when I launch a movie, the window remains black and there are no images or sound. I use Bitdefender Total Security. Thanks for your time and help. Alain
You can create a new profile as a quick test to see if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
If the new profile works, you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
Thanks, I followed the instructions, created a new profile but unfortunately without success... :-(
Can you disable Bitdefender, reboot, and try again?

After reinstalling Windows 10 I had to reinstall Firefox and I've had the problem ever since. The monitor is still the same.
