Say Goodbye to Joost and Bablegum, here comes Zattoo

My participation in both the Joost and Bablegum beta phase has taught me several things about those social TV over Internet clients: They do add interactivity to the TV experience. Users can chat about a TV show they are viewing at that moment or rate shows for instance. Both TV clients have one big disadvantage though that weighs much more than the new interactivity. Joost and Bablegum stream pre-recorded tv shows only, at least in this stage. There is absolutely no live content and the content that is currently offered is considered by many as B-Movie content.

Joost 0.9 is out

A new version of the Internet TV application Joost has been released yesterday. The first thing that struck me was that I had to uninstall Joost 0.85 before I could install the new Joost version. If that was not bad enough I had to create a new account because Joost changed to a new user system. Signup was hassle free though. There have not been many changes to the system as far as I can tell, one new feature seems to be the so called channel catalog which displays all the channels that can be added to view in Joost.

Guide to watch Champions League, UEFA Cup and Leagues live

The tv companies in your country decided that it is not worth to show all the games on free tv ? I always have the feeling that my time gets punished the most by this decision because i rarely have the opportunity to watch live games on tv. One great way of seeing the football games with no additional costs at all is to rely on a tv streaming application that uses p2p data transfer methods to stream the content.

Invitation to Joost

I’m a participant of the Joost beta best and have currently one free beta invite that I can freely give away to one of my readers. I will be getting more invites as the Joost beta progresses and will give them away as well. I probably should start to describe the service that Joost offers before I announce how you can win the beta invitation to Joost.

Watch Tv over Internet with Sopcast

There were lately some rumors about tvu player, the program that I normally use to watch tv over internet. The website was not reachable and everything seemed to go down the hill. I decided to take some precautions and test other tv streaming programs to see if any could reach the quality of the tvu player.

TVU Player Beta Invites

I’m currently taking part in the tvu player beta program and would like to write a few words about it and offer some invites for the beta program. The tvu player beta has the version number 2.2.1 and the only changes that I discovered were the updated channels list which seems to hold some more channels and the log file which seems to hold more information than before. The beta page recommends to upgrade the media player to windows media player 10 for best results and i suggest everyone who is having troubles with the picture quality to upgrade the media player.

The famous TVU Player has been released in a new version some days ago. There is no information what has changed in this new version but one obvious change is the new graphical user interface which looks much cleaner than the previous one. Another new feature is the favorites tab which makes it possible to save streams as favorites for faster access. Let us take a quick look at the channels that tvu player is supporting.

View thousands of tv shows and episodes online

Yes, this is even better than the website that offered about 700 shows. Actually the 700 show website used content from guba.com as a source for their shows, but guba offers more of them. All videos belong to one of eight categories (cartoons, comedy, documentary, drama, foreign, miscellanous, music videos and sports).
