I dunno if this should be on the tech forum but here goes anyway:
I went on to RTE's site just there to see if there was a live stream of Cork v Tipp but it turned out that they had Dumpland v Meath on (I don't know why 'cause it was on TV anyway and the live streams are only available to those living in Ireland).
Anyway, that's not really my point as my problem is I couldn't watch the stream. I clicked on the icon for Windows Media player but it just downloaded a clip and which it kept playing over and over.
I know the streams are available on Real Player as well but I don't want to install that as the last time I had it it hijacked my computer and did all kinds of shit.

as far as i know the live stream is just rté tv on the net, as for it being on the island of ireland, that has not been so, i was able to watch the cork game last week and the dublin game today and I'm in east London. Maybe the media player you have is an old version? try downloading the new one.
