I still cannot get ANY live tv feeds to work with Mplayer-plugin. The plugin starts up, says connected, then buffering, then says STOPPED! I click play, and the same BS all over again. I even tried it w/o buffering, a different user agent+. I know for a fact I am not the only one with this problem. What is the solution? I cannot believe that people would put up with not being able to see Live tv feeds. Someone knows the answer. I also tried VLC plugin, NO GOOD!

I don't have much interest in TV, Internet or otherwise but have you looked at Miro (previously called Democracy Player)? Miro works on all the 3 major platforms.

I have miro installed. It does not have "Live Feeds", just recorded videos/shows. Unless I am missing something. Thanks

I saw the same, but I confess I don't have the patience to debug these sorts of things, if its not a site I visit often.

Instead, I just copied and pasted the URL into konqueor, and on my PC it worked.
