[LUG] Internet TV

 

Hello everyone.

I've had several attempts at getting Japanese TV over the internet, but 
have so far been unsuccessful. I managed to get BBC News to work on one 
site, but very few sites work with the firefox plugin. It seems that 
video streaming is something of a non-standard mess in the commercial world.

For both realvideo and windows media video the firefox plugin tries to 
load and then stops. Sometimes I get half a second of sound before it 
stops, but usually not. Mplayer and xine don't like it either. Xine I 
have no idea what it's problem is (can't stand it anyway). Mplayer -v says:
