Watching TV on TP

[heydjbobby74]

I love the San Diego Chargers, and would love to watch their games on my TP, is there a way I can do that without a Slingbox?I have searched the threads, but my goodness there are a TON of threads. It could literally takes days or weeks to read all of these threads! Any help would be much appreciated!

Well a slingbox would sure be the easier way. Other than that, you might be SOL for live sports. You can try http://atdhe.net/ during the season, as it seems to have a lot of streaming sports, but I am unsure if it will play on a TP. Good luck.

I do use hulu and other sites to watch old stuff, i thanked you for the live tv link you gave us. The "crap" i was talkin about were those sites that say that have like 5000 channels but they are usually public access from other countrys, that stuff sux lol. why isnt there a website that offers all the live streaming cable channels for a monthly fee like cable? I think it would be cheaper cus you would just need an internet connection

yes, im double posting...

yea, but the cost of the net to make having the cable chanels on the cpu would outweigh the cost of the net.. I know here, for 10mbs cable net, its almost $50....yet dsl, at 1.5 is $15, but its slower and takes a lot longer to buffer....just my observations

edit: post took me to 500

MobiTV did something like this when I had it on my pre-PPC phone.

Maybe someone could look into creating a very stripped down version of XBMC that focused on the Video Plugins?

I'm curious why a slingbox is not an option??

I have tried every option there is for TV viewing & nothing else even comes close to a slingbox IMHO.

i can't speek for the op, but for me slingbox is not an option because i have had to cancel my verizon internet since i got laid off. now my only internet is THROUGH my TP. sucks because there have been some great deels on HAVA systems over on woot.com. i'll give adthe.net a try.
