Am I missing something here? Isn't multicast used for broadcast, and not for video on demand which is what TVNZ is giving us here?

yes it is - my bad, I was hoping for broadcasting not regurgitated shortland street episodes Embarassed I thought "on demand" would entail broadcasts available on demand.

Very impressed, a lot better than I thought it would be! just remember that (as the logo states) it's Beta version 1.0.. could be a few things that need to be changed or reviewed ;)

Wow.. the Telethon that takes me back!

barf: great site, but one issue here I can reproduce on all my PCs
anything I view which displays a short advertisment first only displays the advertisment and won't load the actual content - ie it just sits on the last frame of the advertisment
Using Firefox 2 and Flash 9 - no problems with Youtube, soapbox or etc


barf - I get the same problem under ubuntu with FF2 and flash 9 - it also wouldn't do full-screen.  However, I left it for a couple of minutes and the main programme started - still no full-screen, though.  On my win xp box (with ff2 and flash 9, also), it's fine.  Did you resolve the problem?

The "Orcon TV" is not really dead just orcon are behind the times...(and click the link for a retro laugh)


AltTV still exists and works... You need a progarm capable of reading ripp'cough'ing mms: streams

256k (groan)
700k, (getting there)


Note, GZ's scripting will probably format the MMS urls as geekzone.co.nz/mms:202......
