Cant play eurosport

I have windows 7 and media player 12, I am unbale to play the video or stream. I can only see the high quality stream, which is only eurosport 1 (I wish to watch europsort 2 for the superbikes). My laptop meets all requirements for playing video. When requesting error details I receive this message:
"Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the specified protocol is not supported. If you typed a URL in the Open URL dialog box, try using a different transport protocol (for example, "http:" or "rtsp:")."
can anyone help?

Theres probably a problem, find out what it is and fix it. I bet that'll work.

Come over here tomorrow, I'll be watching it and between races we can snuggle. Bring the laptop over too, I'll sort it.

It complies with everything specified on their website you doughnut,

I did watch it in the end, not on europlayer though, on sky player through my xbox. I can only get euro HD through the europlayer.
