Just go to myp2p, get a good SOPCAST stream and connect the lappy to the TV, use it all the time for soccer matches, fights etc, SOPCAST set up right will be pretty flawless, compared to web based sites (veetle) who will get shut down every couple of mins,

if you get a stream of over 600kbps on SOPCAST, set the buffer to 20 secs in the options, then on the PC, you can change the res to improve the pic, been using it for a long time, never had hassles, but its down to the stream and your BBAND also

yes its good, but when they keep shutting it down due to copyright probs, all those web-based streams have the same issue, they get the streams shut down all the time during a game, a fight, some of the streams on SOPCAST are over 1100 kbps and being streamed from a HD source, which is pristine and doesnt shut down in the middle of a game as its not being displayed on a webpage, a lot of those webpages are also embedded with trojans/malware also

frankly , you are all wrong ;)

point a dish at 19 east astra 1 satellite and connect a sat receiver like the sv HD combo , or any similar third party sat receiver (blade , spider , dreambox , technomate)

then tune to RTL and you will get the fight , although the commentary will be in german

I agree. There are plenty of free streams out there. I haven't tried livefootyonline so I can't comment on it, but is it really that much better than the free streams to justify paying?

Mr Fug, I use em all the time for the footy from myp2p, for soccer/boxing etc, I have a full tut on how to get the best from SOPCAST(increasing buffer times etc) and tweaking your PC (increase the screen output) and putting it on your TV, the streams I use are all english commentary, all above 800kbs, some are 0ver 1000kbs which renders the picture excellent, streamed from HD content to,

Streams were always free, thats why they were done, so others could get to see a game, fight etc, charging for something like this is something I dont agree with and also, there are loads of good streams out there free, the problem with the likes of say Veetle and web-based streamers, they are always hit with cease and decist actions whenever they show a game or fight, so its constantly being turned off and on, SOPCAST and similar programmes arent, you would be a mug to pay for something like this in my opinion

The above is a basic step by step, but works a charn, but bear in mind that your PC, TV etc all can have an impact, but if you tweak the PC and player, you will see a difference, I got a whole season of footy doing this, all games.

a bit more info is needed, what you mean not running or cant run? have you installed the latest version? have you got a previous version installed? what machine are you trying to run it on? is your firewall blocking access?
