Can't play live webcast from CBC website

I am trying to watch the live webcasts from the CBC website on my computer. A small popup comes up with the intro and a window is behind it where the webcast would be shown, but I get a quicktime message that pops up that says URL is not valid. Does anyone know what I can do to resolve this issue.

Thanks for your thoughts, gardener, but with an Intel MacBook, the Flip4Mac-QuickTime method is non-functional. I got a few of the video streams to work last night, but in general, the problem persists. Good to hear though that CBC and Apple seem to now know of this. Not sure thought, why all of a sudden .wmv video clips are not reliably rendered with F4M.

Sorry, forgot to mention that I'm using 10.4.11 - if thats a factor. Tonight, I'm still only getting playback on thier cbc.ca channels 1 - 4. Nothing on channels 5 - 9.
Still waiting for cross platform inter-operability...
