I was trying to view the TV of the European Parliament launched today. Going to the webpage, here are the technical requirements:
http://www.europarltv.europa.eu/ supplies video in two primary formats. Our content is primarily streamed in Windows Media Video format and Flash Video. To support our video players, you must be using a PC running a standard Microsoft Operating system or an Apple Mac. We currently fully support our video on Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari browsers on both the PC and Mac.
This is the webpage I got by visiting the Configuration Helping page:
Configuration
Operating system : Linux - undefined

They also invite people who are not happy to file petitions:
How do I email Members or the President of the European Parliament?
The current composition of the European Parliament is set out under "Members of the European Parliament" - in alphabetical order or searchable by country, group, committee, … or a combination of these criteria. This information covers all - but only - the current MEPs and is updated daily. Email addresses are given only for those MEPs who wish them to be published. It is however possible to send a Petition to the European Parliament via email on the official form - but please read the relevant Help page first!
So let's start a petition then.
