Top Gear Live - Lucky Americans...

[SSJ3 Goten]

The BBC are providing a multicast stream for their BBC1, BBC2, BBC4 and BBC News 24 channels.

BBC1: http://support.bbc.co.uk/multicast/rams/uni/bbc1.ram
BBC2: http://support.bbc.co.uk/multicast/rams/uni/bbc2.ram
BBC4: http://support.bbc.co.uk/multicast/rams/uni/video16.ram
BBC News 24: http://support.bbc.co.uk/multicast/rams/uni/news24.ram

When Top Gear starts again you can watch it live [ok, 1 minute behind tv..]

.ram = RealPlayer

 

[Demo24]

what the heck is a .ram file?

 

[Jostyrostelli]

Real Player I think...

 

[hokiethang]

Realmedia????

I guess its better than nothing, but of all of the advancements that have been made in technology, and with the size of the BBC, you'd think they could afford wmv7 or quicktime4, which look better than RM.

 

[Renesis]

STREAMING REAL PLAYER? YOU MUST BE JOOOOOOOOKING!!!!

 

[leif]

hey...its better than nothing...

Edit: i just downloaded the player...the quality is at least as good as that of Jabbasworld, and the aspect aint screwed up by the PAL/NTSC conversion

 

[Phix]

hey...its better than nothing...

Or, you know, being a bit patient and waiting for the infinitely better rips of the episode.

BBC always works with realmedia streaming...

the Tsunami relieff concert, the Queen's birthday concert...

always shitty quality

I don't get the Lucky Americans part of the title.

 

[Cruzz563]

Maybe he means that they can watch it live in stead of having to wait and having to download it??

But than again..makes no sense, because EVERYBODY can watch that, not only americans

[haha604]

This is a nice gesture by the BBC .

Dam lucky. Now they don't have to move from the TV to the computer. Its all on computer now, cutting down on that needless, time wasting chore of walking.

 

[leif]

I have been looking forward to watching Top Gear live, and now the links dont work (I tried the ones on the BBC webpage as well, nothing!)
