Some servers aren't forwarding audio properly, it's a known issue and is completely random, the best resolution is to disconnect for Skyfire and relaunch the application, usually you'll know you're connected to a server with audio forwarding capabilities when you briefly see the audio icon appear once the Skyfire homepage loads.

Hope that helps.

That has been a constant ongoing problem. That & the non saving of bookmarks, inability to sign in/authenticate etc etc etc etc are all problems on the server end.

Skyfire is pretty sweet when it works, but it is 100% totally dependent on their servers working correctly & that is definitely a crap shoot at times........

Yeah I've been disconnecting and reconnecting to fix the issue but it takes so long for it to load up sometimes that its just a hassle. I hope they work this bug out because its a major one seeing as what makes this browser good is the ability to view and hear videos within it but its no good if I can only see the clip.

Not living in the USA meant I had to make up a bogus US phone number when setting up my Skyfire account, but the email confirmation from SkyFire had a link to download the SkyFire cab file and I've been like the guy who invented the rear vision mirror since (I've never looked back!)

Today, skyfire opened its beta to everyone. I am from Canada and I know the beta was exclusive to users in the States, but is there a .cab file somewhere that can give me access to this browser?
