The application keep on crashing on my computer. I have tried it on another computer and it works fine. I guess it might have an issue with dual core. Any one got it to work without crashing and has a dual core?
Thanks.
 
So it sounds like the tv is real hit or miss then 🙁 I tried some of the download-free tv sites, but it was constantly buffering ever 20-30 seconds.
 
anyone know if the downloaded programs act as P2P(kazaa,bittorrent) in its ability to stream the channels? I using a university connection and they have ICARUS in place that will detect P2P activities and disconnect your internet access.
Dont want to get "busted"

If you are talking about TVUPlayer, that is a p2ptv program which means it uses BT technology and is unauthorized. My guess is that the other sites listed are authorized.

they dont really block the ports per se.. its more like they pick up on "P2P-like activities" and block your internet access. I got temp block for using Mirc before. Its very restrictive.
