I've got difficulties with playing these sessions back. I can't fast forward and when paused for a longer time the video goes mute. Tried Opera, Firefox and Chrome with the same results. I don't know if it's just me or is it a common problem? I'm rarely able to watch the whole recording in one go and inability to pause or restart playing from the moment I've finished before (or even skip through bits) is a big problem.:( Any solution would be greatly appreciated:)
