Default British TV!

British TV IS NOW DEAD(as in no longer works)

NOTICE!!!

Closed till someperson comes up with a fix and please dont start another thread asking why its not working just read through everything to find your answer.



I have created a program that lets you watch 44 British TV channels!

It works on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. You must have VLC installed to the default location for your platform in order for it to work.

Note: You must run the Linux version inside a terminal.

Download
Windows
Mac OS X
Linux 32-bit
Linux 64-bit
Latest Update: 1 October 2009

Donations
This program will always be provided for free. However, if you would like to donate to me for whatever reason, you may email me for details.

Rules
Simply read all the instructions and the troubleshooter. Do not post or reply unless it has not been covered here. Do not post URLs to new channels; email someperson if you have a channel to add. Just go to someperson's profile to see his email address. Do not request for channels to be added.

Note: If these rules are not followed you jeopardize your membership and may lead to a infraction/ban.

Instructions
Windows

For British TV to work you need VLC media player installed to it default location on your version of Windows. In other words, you need to install without changing any settings in the installer. The British TV program can be placed anywhere on your computer.

Mac OS X
Download VLC. Copy the VLC program to "/Applications". Then double-click to open the British TV program.

Linux
You need to install VLC however you normally install packages for your distribution of Linux. Regular Linux users should already be familiar with this procedure, so I won't go into detail here. After installing VLC, open a Terminal window, and drag the British TV program to that window. Press enter.

Troubleshooter
Q. How do i change a channel?
A. Use the channel number.

Q. VLC not found at script/britishtv.pl line 163, <> line 1.
A. Make sure VLC is installed to the default location for your platform. If it is, please post.

Q. Is there a way to switch channels without opening a new prompt window?
A. When you close VLC, you'll go back to the channel list.

Q. What is VLC?
A. VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player and multimedia framework capable of reading most audio and video formats (MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264, DivX, MPEG-1, mp3, ogg, aac ...) as well as DVDs, Audio CDs VCDs, and various streaming protocols.

Q.The video buffers up to 100% and nothing happens.
A. Wait a few more seconds and the video will appear.

Q. I get sound, but no video; only a black screen.
A. Make sure VLC is up to date. If it is, the stream may have a fault.

Q. The video buffers to 100%, plays for a couple of seconds, and then stops and picture freezes.
A. If you are running a Antivirus and Firewall, please allow VLC and British TV.exe. If this does not help, try increasing the cache (Preferences -> All -> Input/Codecs => Access Modules => MMS). If that doesn't help, you can try to copy and paste the URL into a different media player. If that doesn't help, you may need to upgrade your Internet connection to a higher speed.

Q. Does this work from outside the UK?
A. Yes.

Q. Does VLC need to be the default player?
A. No.

Q. Channels won't buffer or start.
A. The sever that host the channels is probably undergoing maintenance, is down, or the URLs have changed. This has nothing to do with the British TV program, VLC, or someperson. Please email someperson with a list of non-working channels so that he may provide an update if necessary.

I don't actually run the streams, so I don't control what I have. However, if any of those become available, I will add them.

Thanks mate, but it doesn't seem to be working on my Kubuntu desktop. I've just opened a terminal and then the program, that it asks for the channel you would like to watch. It would open VLC, but nothing more...thanks for help!

New version just released! I fixed Eurosport 2's name and added Eurosport News. Download it from the first post.

The first time I used the previous version it worked, but after that, and after installing the new version, whenever I press enter it's saying:

VLC not found at script/britishtv.pl line 163, <> line 1.

Any1 know what to do about it, or having the same issue ?

If you're on Windows, you need to run it from the same drive VLC is installed on. I'm trying to fix that bug, but have had no luck so far. I didn't modify that part of the code between versions, so I'm not sure why you would have any new issues with it.

Still won't work for me on linux. I can open the program in terminal but when I choose a channel it would say this now: Which channel would you like to watch? ITV 2
Unknown failure at script/britishtv.pl line 163, <> line 1.
