what about recording? cant seem to do anything the file.

Re: [tvcatchup app] awesome !
 

I can still only get a few seconds of play before it freezes. I don't seem to be able to access mplayer at the top of the screen either, unless that is just an empty banner?

Re: [tvcatchup app] awesome !
 

What a great application. :D Just signed up to say thanks. I get it

smooth on 3G. (Very unexpected) The cache mod is a must. I

changed mine to 5048.

Just to add where can I get the controls for full screen?

Is it the media player controls if so where can I find them? searching

help files at the moment.

Ctrl + F

Full screen - same again to get out of it from what i've found - compared it next to an iphone and the colours of the football pitch / players looked better on the n900 - sometimes the n900 artifacts for a few seconds.

I get pretty smooth play back on 3G / 3.5G & WiFi

No issues with freezing for me... i've had it on E4 while driving in the holder with FM Transmitter on for sound so i can watch tele in the car when i park up on my travels

Where is the creator of this app ? be good to see the tele channel picture icons used in the list or something.

Ive no used the recording function btw..

I find this app works better quality wise & smoother than the VLC alternative.

N900

Re: [tvcatchup app] awesome !
 

when you record how can we play the file??

Re: [tvcatchup app] awesome !
 

When you hit record you get the following pop up which allows you to specify the download location.

So for example mine is now set to:

/home/user/MyDocs/.videos/rec.ts

(Recorded video is located in the My Videos section of the My Documents on the N900)

Using file manager i locate the video file (located above)

Hope this helps.

Have installed this and x-term opened and it is just showing rows like:
103: downloaded 2221 bytes
104: etc, etc

It's currently on row 119

Is this normal?

Re: [tvcatchup app] awesome !
 

Blocky artifacts are within the video stream as far as I can tell, because the same video stream played on a PC with high speed broadband also displays the same artifacts. While their flash site for the PC has a high quality none blocky stream. If only the mobile stream was the same as the PC version because the N900 is more than capable of playing it.

Here is a high quality stream for BBC parliament channel it's used for IPTV so is TV quality and the N900 can play it fine on a none overclocked system using only 75% CPU
