Re: New link for British TV
 

I use this link...and it works using Google Chrome or Internet Explorer opening up in WMP:

http://fbhost-tv.fr//video/150/VLC-UK-tv.html

I have not created an account.....

Just opened BBC 1,ITV 1 and Channel 5 - all good....

NLDFC...thanks again for posting the link to this....it has worked for us since you first put up the link..;)

Re: New link for British TV
 

Thanks for that link

Very strange - that works perfect for me yet going in from my account side they are acting up :thumbup:

Re: New link for British TV
 

yeah:thumbsup: you are a star :D

Re: New link for British TV
 

It's true...this is the dog's bollocks, the cat's ass (sorry to be coarse). All they need is BBC-4, then a couple more of the free to air channels. Never buffers either, probably since it's my direct broadband connection rather than through a UK VPN server.

Re: New link for British TV
 

Looks this one has gone to the dogs.

Re: New link for British TV
 

Yes, looks like the BBC copyright police got to them...figured it was too good to last :(

Re: New link for British TV
 

Bugger - will keep an eye on that incase it comes back on

Re: New link for British TV
 

All links are back up and running fine :thumbup:


I think you may have to be logged in now though

Re: New link for British TV
 

Whatever they did with this while it was down seems to have speeded it up - even with 2 computers downloading torrents here - I have no buffer issues at all :thumbup:

Re: New link for British TV
 

I am getting an access denied message :( Whether I log in or not......Anyone else had this?

Re: New link for British TV
 

There are 2 different log on scripts - One in the centre and 1 on the right hand side of the screen - If i use the 1 on the right i get in but if I use the 1 in the centre in get the "access denied"

Re: New link for British TV
 

....and I didn't have to log in at all? The list of channels was right there on the opening page here, and opened okay:

Re: New link for British TV
 

This site seems to change by the hour :D

Re: New link for British TV
 

But then it doesn't cost anything so.....beggars and choosers springs to mind :) The picture quality is very good:thumbup:

Re: New link for British TV
 

Anyone else having trouble with BBC1 and ITV1 here ? - I just get the black screen with those 2 :confused:

Ignore that - works fine now , must have been doing something wrong

Re: New link for British TV
 

Class thanks!:thumbsup:

Re: New link for British TV
 

Great to use that site to watch Cardiff v Swansea on Beeb One Sunday morning (despite the result and the hideously early hour). No buffering, all footy goodness :)

Re: New link for British TV
 

Nice little touch added to this now - each channel has a channel guide on the page :thumbup:

Re: New link for British TV
 

Like!!!!! :D

Re: New link for British TV
 

Can someone tell me when I can watch some good British TV programs you guys rave about? Whenever I click on these channels, I happen to see American movies or TV programs. To my surprise I could even watch a live NFL Sunday night game!

Re: New link for British TV
 

hmmm I must be doing something wrong too....I can't get any picture only sound now with WMP Player HQ when I click on any of its channels but Flash HQ and Flash Player HQ seem to work ok. :confused:

Re: New link for British TV
 

working fine here - just checked BBC1 and ITV1 both ok :thumbup:


seeming to take a bit longer to buffer today for some reason though

Re: New link for British TV
 

Got it sorted....was opening it in google chrome changed to internet explorer and it works a treat....phew!!! My life wouldn't have been worth living if 11 yr old missed Merlin :D

Re: New link for British TV
 

Well impressed that this has lasted so long :thumbup:

Re: New link for British TV
 

Anyone else finding this really slow the last week or so ? May be the time of the month that my internet speed goes for kack :confused:

Re: New link for British TV
 

mine gets really slow sometimes to the point i give up and put the normal * on again

Re: New link for British TV
 

I think I may try and rewire the house a bit to have hardwire connections upstairs to speed it up a bit - The wireless option i'm pretty sure is slowing my connection down a good bit

Re: New link for British TV
 

You have Rogers right? What service do you have? I have recently switched back to them and have the (alledged) 25mbps service. That's all fine and dandy but the crappy SMC modem/router they provide sucks. It's in the basement. I get upto 20mbps wifi sitting in the basement but when I go upstairs it's <10.:frown:

Re: New link for British TV
 

Yip Rogers it is - Free years deal that I got from them when i bought the house - to be honest I will be going back to Aliant as soon as its over - The speeds are unpredictable as hell , I will try a check with speedtest.net hard wired and wireless tonight just out of curiosity.

Had a couple of messages from them the last couple of months that I am approaching my limit as well which isnt helping my torrent downloading quota ;)

Re: New link for British TV
 

This is what i get according to speedtest using halifax with wireless I should add

Re: New link for British TV
 

I do a bit better.....;)

Re: New link for British TV
 

Is that down in the basement or upstairs ?


tried shutting down the other laptop and shutting the torrent clients and streams down and its still crap

Re: New link for British TV
 

That's upstairs away from the router. I do have the encrypton turned off (but MAC filtering on before anyone comes round to try to steal my connection). I'm no techie but I think the encrypton seems to slow things down a tad.

Re: New link for British TV
 

I just took the lappy downstairs and practically had it sitting on the smc box and still couldnt get over 10 - I will try hardwire tomorrow , there must at least 10 bloody ethernet cables in this house and I cant find one of them right now :frown:

can see the phone and the internet going back to rogers and taking aliant back on again :thumbup:

Re: New link for British TV
 

What Rogers internet service have you subscribed to? I have the 25mbps package, one down from the ultimate. If you are on the 10Mbps deal then your speeds are pretty reasonable.

I moved back to Rogers from Aliant because where I am, I can only get 3Mbps with them and thats with drop-outs. Might be different to you being closer the the mythical exchange!

Re: New link for British TV
 

I will have to give them a call to see what package I am on - may be worth upgrading to the 25 if I am only on a 10

Re: New link for British TV
 

I'm on 'Extreme Plus'. Man, I'm on the edge.;)

Re: New link for British TV
 

what codec do i need some of the channels say a codec is needed

Re: New link for British TV
 

i can get the flash hq ones to work though

Re: New link for British TV
 

Could you let me know what ones are not working for you and i will see what codecs you need - I take it all the vlc ones are working ?
