Channel 7 +, Australia will not play on Chrome, Chromium, or Brave. It plays on Firefox, using the same VPN (Nord) on all of them. It logs on, but has a static picture. SBS & Channel 9 are normal. The OS is MX-23.3

Any ideas? 

I have discovered that some video files I have downloaded have a text of the words of the song appearing along the bottom of the frames. I use Wondershare Uniconverter to down load my videos and in there is the ability to turn off ÔÇ£file mergerÔÇØ. When exported to the Downloader Folder I can delete the SRT file and I get a video without text.
There are some older files that still contain the SRT file. I can try and find them again on the Internet and use the correct method of removing the SRT file, as above, but I would like a simple to use program that will remove the SRT file from my existing video file. There are a number of programs offered on the internet but to me they seem difficult to use. Does anyone have an experience in this field who can guide me on this matter?

on the subject of the Maths Assessment standards
 

Quote:Ministers are defending their approach, saying regardless of the figure the children at Year 8 are not where they should be - and the new curriculum the new data is benchmarked against is broadly at the same level as the previous one.
It follows Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Education Minister Erica Stanford's selling their new maths policy at the National Party conference over the weekend, claiming just 22 percent of Year 8 students were at the expected standard for maths.
However, Aotearoa Educators Collective on Monday raised concerns the 22 percent figure was not comparing apples with apples because it was benchmarked against a new curriculum which was not yet being taught to Year 8 children.

The second act of Sam Neill: ÔÇÿThe truth was, I didnÔÇÖt know how long I had to liveÔÇÖ

Our health system has been allowed to deteriorate over the last 40 odd years, & is in desperate need of fixing. And NOT in a way which ensures healthcare which is so expensive that it shuts out those on low incomes; a health system which everyone is able to access.  The present health system is a disgrace to all the previous govts which have allowed the situation to continue or have actively made it worse.
People in rural communities are now dying at higher rates simply due to where they live. More GP's are likely to close their surgeries because of rising costs & underfunding.

I think its time the system was overhauled; a good start might be to bond newly qualified drs & nurses, have them work in rural areas for say 2-3 years & in return reduce their student loan reasonably substantially.
