espn video shows on the iphone?

[kristoffer4]

Hey guys. I tried to watch ESPNs MMA Live on my iphone. It worked about a week ago and loaded in html5 but now it looks like it is coded in flash?!
I thought they had everything in HTML5? There mobil iphone site doesn't have the shows. Is there an way to watch the ESPN show MMA Live?

No one?

Its hard to say. I have an av cable and although some video's play in sites they wont play through the av cable. Im guessing they might disable the tv out because you would probably cancel your cable subscription if that was the case!

No I am talking about just seeing them on the iphone.

I noticed that too

I noticed the same thing I used to be able to browse the full site on my iPhone and watch videos and now I can't. Conspiracy

So frustrating!

Yeah, this one had me raging. I was addicted to that show for awhile because I could watch it every Friday on lunch thanks to my trusty iPhone. Since ESPN decided to revert to flash-only rather than move forward to HTML5 (or at least keep it as an option), I never bother to watch it anymore.

I emailed ESPN but never received a response. Oh well, I'm at least one viewer they've lost due to basing the functionality of their site on a proprietary web plugin. There are many other places to get MMA news.
