Hi there! I understand you're having trouble watching Real America’s Voice News on your laptop using Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome, but it works fine on your iPhone. Let’s get this sorted out together.

To start, could you tell me if you see any errors or messages when you try to watch on those browsers? Also, is the issue happening on both browsers right now, or did it start recently?

Meanwhile, here’s a step-by-step approach we can try to fix this:

1. Check Internet Connection: Even though it works on the iPhone, it’s good to make sure your laptop’s internet is stable.

2. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies: Sometimes old data can cause streaming issues. Here’s how to clear cache:
- In Edge or Chrome, press Ctrl + Shift + Delete.
- Select to clear cached images/files and cookies.
- Restart the browser and try again.

3. Update your Browser: Outdated browsers can have compatibility issues.
- Go to the browser menu > Help > About Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, update if available.

4. Try Incognito/Private Mode: This disables extensions and cache temporarily.
- Open a new private window (Ctrl + Shift + N) in Edge or Chrome and open the Real America’s Voice News site. See if the streaming works here.

5. Disable Extensions: Sometimes browser add-ons interfere with streaming.
- Disable all extensions and retry.

6. Check for Security Software or Firewall: Occasionally antivirus or firewall settings block streaming services on laptops.

7. Try Another Network: If possible, connect your laptop to a different Wi-Fi (like mobile hotspot) to rule out network restrictions.

If none of those work, there might be an issue with the browser compatibility or a streaming link error specific to laptop browsers. Let me know the results from these steps, and we can dig deeper if needed.

Also, you can try watching directly by visiting https://americasvoice.news/playlists/show/americas-voice-live/ in a private tab to see if the stream loads at all1 2.

Are you able to try these steps now?
