Making a short visit here so that you all can be up to date on the technology front - It appears that the free webwatching business is rapidly improving with new media player softwares being far more accomodative and simpler.
The absolute best so far is the COOLSTREAMING media software that has just been released. What they have done is to include all the other media softwares (= PPLive, PPStream, S.O.P) into one. So, now you have Coolstreaming, PPLive, PPStream and SOP in one single watch control. The new COOLSTREAMING media has over 50 channels. Music, movies, news and sports - Lotsa of Italian channels with great music. French channels as well.
However, you still need to download the different media player softwares on to your hard-drive in order to watch the channels since COOLSTREAMING does not have all of the channels.
1. First download the new hot COOLSTREAMING - www.coolstreaming.it/module/go.php?go=coolIT
Scroll down a bit and you will see "Download now".
2. Once you have downloaded the software and the icon appears on your desktop, right click on the icon and then choose "Open" - this will install the media software.
3. Once it opens up, check all the channels to the left side on the screen - to start a channel click on the bitrate number to the rigth of the channel name. For example, 350K, 450K or 200K etc
4. If you want to check out the LIVE event currently playing, usually sports, click on the BLUE GLOBE right at the top of the Coolstreaming page. In there you will see the "Contents" - Click "Live Events" - Now you will see 8 small windows media players loading live programs. Those that are BLACK SCREENS dont have any Live events.
5. And if you want to know which channel is playing JUVENTUS GAMES, click on SCHEDULE SERIE A / B.
In there, click on the BLACK ARROW to the far right. You will be taken to the WEBFORUM to register yourself as the information is given to you when you have become a member of their forum. Once you have done that, then do the same procedure again by clicking on SCHEDULE SERIE A / B....then click on the BLACK ARROW again...and now you will see which channel is playing JUVE GAMES.
For instance, tomorrows JUVE game will be broadcasted on GREAT SPORTS CHANNEL AND TIAN JIN 5 SPORT.
These channels can ONLY be found on the PPstream media player - so, lets make sure we have PPstream downloaded on our computers. Right here:
www.coolstreaming.it/module/go.php?go=ppstream
Click GREEN button.
Now, here is the problem, their channels are all written in Chinese. Gosh, I should have studied chinese and not german in high school - Anyway, thanks to LDV he has found a webpage with an english channel translation. Right here boys and girls =>
www.babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?lp=it_en&trurl=http%3a%2f%2fteokolo.altervista.org%2ftv%2fppstream%2fchannels.php
