TV over Internet List - post links here.

Figured we may as well start a big list of links where you can find tv on the internet. These are tv and/or videos, which can be seen online or downloaded, not real IPTV. Some are gonna be p2p, some direct links to major networks' online streams, and others are off the wall stuff done by amateurs. Gonna add more and more as time goes on... There's lots out there.

(*mods - if you find need to edit this list, either do it, or whatever. I'm just posting this as informational - don't intend to lead people astray to bad or illegal junk - these are just links I've found online...*)

Video On Demand
AOL In2tv http://television.aol.com/in2tv - nice one... It's got gilligan's Island, Beetlejuice, and some others... video on demand.

Prelinger Collection:
http://www.archive.org/details/prelinger - lots of old ads and movies in here... basically it's a collection of television stuff that's now old enough that it's entered public domain - sort of the project gutenburg of tv shows.

p2p TV Programs - they use p2p technologies... sort of like bittorrent for tv... (Legalities may be a grey area at the moment? These have got loads of tv stations... I've read both that it's illegal and that it's not illegal on several websites. I guess I can see both sides of argument - illegal to get a pay tv channel that you aren't paying for - but not really any more so than going to a bar to watch a game on espn or whatever... guess in a way, the networks should love this stuff since it's really getting their ads to more folks...):

So far, I haven't found any free ways to record p2p tv stuff listed above. I checked out Sourceforge.net (the main spot where open source programs start, grow, and develop) - nothing's there for recording p2ptv... If someone knows of one, please mention it in this thread. Thanks!

It seems weird that players are all over the place for this stuff but not too many recorders... For some reason, probably the same reason we don't see recorders for these that are free, the tv signals on these programs won't show up on my tv after running the line to the tv from the all-in-wonder card. It's just a big black area on the screen where the program is running, which is really weird since the programs show up on the main, normal, computer monitor fine, and all other things on the monitor can be seen fine in the tv (got it set up so that tv is a clone of the monitor)... I think it must be something with a direct x issue or something?

There are several shareware programs that do have a free limited time demo to use to record p2ptv... One of the main ones is PPRecorder - http://www.pprecorder.com/.

I dont see the harm in watching a p2p channel I cant even subscribe to. such as guangdong sports for example. Some of the feeds people have put up are FTA backhauls too! I have watched a couple UEFA Champions' League feeds that were backhauls streamed from European Sats.

Yeah, i read some on the XBMC software and I don't have anywhere near the skill to mess with that stuff. And I definitely would not want to mod my 360 with it if i did...

How about the VLC software. Does it have to be on the xbox to work, or is it just for your pc and it connects to the xbox?

It's called Overlay. Basically the hardware acceleration makes it show up fine on your monitor, but not using TV-Out. There's a few ways to get around it. In some applications (such as VideoLAN) you can go into the options and turn off overlay. That will get it to show up. Another way to do it is to go to your Display Properties -> Settings -> Advanced -> Troubleshoot tab. Sliding the hardware acceleration back a notch or two usually turns off Overlay and lets the video show on the screen. Also remember that after adjustments like that, you may have to restart whatever program it is you're using.

I personally use TVU Player, as it has a few spiffy channels and is incredibly point-and-click easy. The legalities certainly are a gray area, but as was pointed out, with all the commercials on the re-broadcasted networks someone should be happy about it

Cool list!

Have you ever gotten the email spams that you can get thousands of TV Channels online and they will tell you how for $39.95? What they do is they compiled a list of all of these free online video streams. And thats what they give you.

Save your $39.95.

If you see any streams not listed here please add them here and help save others $39.95 too.

Both, and they just made it official with a multiyear deal that also includes TV Everywhere authentication for the DAZN app, and commercial distribution.

DIRECTV, the premier provider of digital television entertainment in the United States, and DAZN, the world's leading sports entertainment platform, today announced a new multi-year distribution agreement for local telecasts of Cleveland Cavaliers, Indiana Pacers, Memphis Grizzlies, Minnesota Timberwolves, and San Antonio Spurs games for DIRECTV streaming, satellite, and U-verse customers in each team's respective NBA-designated home territories.

These DAZN telecasts will be available to DIRECTV customers who subscribe to the Choice or higher packages and to U-verse TV customers who subscribe to the U200 or higher package. Each of DAZN's team services provides live pregame, postgame, and in-game coverage for the respective team.

In the coming weeks, customers who receive access to these teams via DIRECTV will also be able to login to the DAZN platform at no additional cost using their DIRECTV login credentials.

This agreement also provides distribution rights to each of the five NBA teams to all of DIRECTV FOR BUSINESS' thousands of sports bars, restaurants, fitness clubs, and other commercial venues located within each team's respective region.

Monday 11/2 is a full slate for NBA League Pass as all 30 teams are playing and 14 out of 15 total games are on NBALP. Only one national TV game on NBC (Thunder @ Cavs).

DirecTV is even having to use several MLB EI channels (from 745-748) and a NHL CI (770) channel to fit all of them in the guide close together. 5 games at 7:30 ET, 3 games at 8 ET, 2 games at 8:30 ET, 1 game at 9 ET, 3 games at 10 ET. Luckily NHL CI is light on Monday (3 games on CI).

DirecTV is providing both broadcast feeds for all League Pass games except Hornets, Magic, Bucks & Raptors that night. These are all teams that have local broadcasts via a OTA channel which is on spotbeams and have streaming deals (DTC) that are not exclusive DAZN teams which DirecTV just signed a deal with (à la Spurs, Grizzlies, Cavs, Pacers & T'Wolves). Its also very common that we don't get Raptors broadcast very often from TSN or Sportsnet Ontario on League Pass.

11/2/26 (MON) EASTERN	7:00 PM	7:30 PM	8:00 PM	8:30 PM	9:00 PM	10:00 PM

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne

Get it?

An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

For niche use cases, yes I agree. Kali for ethical hacking and security testing, and running a Cacti server for network monitoring are the two things I have experience in. Plus thousands and thousands of other things, but for every day use I just can't see it. The owner of the GMRS repeater that I pay to access is changing the Tx DPL tones tomorrow, while Chirp is available on Linux, the software to program my MXT500 is not.

I run Fedora and Ubuntu in VMWare, honestly I don't care much for the UI of either of them and I don't feel like spending days/weeks to customize the UI to make it look Windows-like when I could just use Windows. The cartoonish dock at the bottom of the screen reminds me of Apple products.

What is so fantabulous about the Windows UI? By many accounts, it has been going downhill since Windows 7.

There are Linux desktops that offer Windows or Mac UIs, yet you don't hear much chatter about them outside of questions about when the creators might get sued.

Because it's what I prefer. I know I've said this a few times, I use Open Shell to give me the cascading start menu a la WIN 95 and NT4.0. The only reason I went from Windows Vista to 7 back in the day was because of Classic Shell. I cannot stand anything other than the OG start menu from 30+ years ago. I'm using ExplorerPatcher to give me Windows 10 UI elements of the taskbar and right click context menus.

If you could take a look at how I set up Windows 95, you'd find many similarities to how I use 11.

I could probably use that as a starting point, but I don't like the full size icons. If you have to click on each folder that's also a no-go for me, it has to be cascading.

I used to have Peppermint Linux in a VM, that was about as close as I could get to recreating a Windows NT4.0 style of menu structure, but I could never get it to scale properly in VMWare on a 4K display and eventually gave up.

Whatever the boot up time it's fine with me. The longest part of my bootup is the HP SureStart BIOS integrity check. Once that is done, it's only a few more seconds. I haven't done this reg tweak yet since the reformat, but I switched the bootup animation to the Windows 10 style spinning circle of dots, and it's two and a half rotations. I can live with that.

I hope you don't believe that makes it wonderful (especially when you're using workarounds for Microsoft's malfeasance).

I use LibreOffice as opposed to Microsoft office (even in Windows) because it's UI is like the Office of old, so I'm putting my money where my mouth is (in a manner of speaking). The ribbon was one of the worst ideas to come out Redmond.

It's dead, they just don't know it yet. They killed it by forcing DRM on it, and that TOTALLY botched implementing it.

There is absolutely NO compelling reason for anybody to switch to ATSC3.0. They only want it as a total and complete money grab.

What bothers me is the total waste of broadcasting spectrum in this very crowded market. It has been almost three years now since KFOX converted their broadcast tower to ATSC 3.0 and moved all of their channels to other towers causing noticeable degradation of the picture quality.
I have a Sony TV with 3.0 capabilities but still use the 1.0 version of locals due to the fact that one or all of the 3.0 channels are often missing or unwatchable. In this city of 800K I doubt that more than a few hundred even know about ATSC 3.0.
The only thing that could motivate me to be interested in 3.0 would be if all of the minor networks (diginets) could be in at least 720P rather than blurry ultra-compressed 480i.
Three years is long enough to waste one of the few available RF frequencies in the area for this trial.
It is time to either move on with this experiment or call it quits.

QFT. Of course, my preference involves a curb and some kicking.

I want it and I have to have it.

I can neuter the phoning home with adguard home so it won't be doing that in my castle but I prefer without Internet so that my TVs in the house don't turn into e-waste

Hopper 3 with Hopper plus internet connection problems

Over the past few weeks, I have had problems connecting to streaming services (Netflix, HBO et al). When I go to the TV's native Channels, I have no problem. The Dish internet troubleshooter shows I have a good internet connection. I'm wondering whether it's an issue with my internet provider or a problem with the Dish software on the Hopper Plus. Anyone else seeing this?

I have a DISH Hopper 3 (Software H713) with Hopper Plus (Software P15403). I have not tried streaming services but I primarily watch TVB Jadeworld international package which is only available by streaming and when I have an issue, I usually have to go to a non-streaming satellite channel first before the streaming channels will work again. What software versions do you have and what is the error message if any are showing on your screen? or is that Dish downloading logo just stuck and never finishes?

New report states 29% of vehicles being traded in are under water

It states the average amount they are under water is OVER $7,000. :eek

Personally, I tend to be the type that drives a vehicle for a lot of years....do my own oil changes and other fluid changes. Just replaced the spark plugs and a couple coils. Youtube is great for things like this.
