    All links are live unless noted. Most of SopCast links are down at the moment though, but see the posts on the previous page for the working link.

    Welcome to the jungle :) I know a friend who configured PPLive for his parents, I will check if there is an easy way to set it up and will let you know IF there is. Btw, the PPLive stream is really crap at the moment, frames keep overlapping and you get the choppy effect.

    I just added another one, channel 2208 ... but if it continues like this it will be down soon I guess. I'm also not sure whether it is live. Even the SopCast forum is down btw. If anyone knows what is happening to SopCast, then please let us know.

    EDIT: I removed channel 2208 since it was not live, but seems to be a recording.

    I thought it was just me with the pplive stream. Once in a while it'll stablise but most of the time the frames corrupt and make it barely watchable. The ppstream one is good but after a while it stops and I have to pause/restart the stream. Sometimes it'll slow to a crawl for a few moments (red/yellow lights in the bottom left) and then carry on. Sopcast streams are the most stable for me.. whenever they're broadcasting. The direct mms links are really slow and buffer all the time. The streamtorrent one asks for a username/password.

    Just thought I'd share how I'm getting on here :)

    Thanks for the input, I had exactly the same experience a week or so ago. PPLive is back to normal now. SopCast is still a bit useless though. For the MMS links, use Windows Media Player which should give you much better performance since it uses UDP and not TCP for the streaming.

    There isn't one AFAIK, but if you ever encounter one, then let us know. So currently the only way is to get their own IPTV box or use satellite.

    No, Sopcast ain't useless (yet). The 2240 is working fine at the moment

    Thanks for pointing this out, the last time I tested this one it didn't work. Channel 2208 was working, but that one seemed to be recorded or repeating.

    Please put the full URL in a HIDE section, this info should be for members only. Thanks.

    [HIDE]mms://202.116.0.25/tvb[/HIDE]
    on Windows media player and it doesn't play.

    I just noticed that both URLs are using the RTSP(TCP) protocol now, maybe that has changed recently. Anyway, try the other MMS URL, but that one is most probably going to hang as well.

    Please put full URLs in a HIDE section, this info should be for members only. Thanks.
