So, I have kmplayer installed, and use it primarily to watch worldtv99 on my n810 which has the very latest flash of diablo. It has been functioning perfectly till the last 5 days or so.
About every 24 hours I get the flashing orange update button flash on the home screen, and it wants to install a newer version of kmplayer, each version it asks to install is .1 newer than the version already on the tablet......so it's gone from 8.5.1 (I think) to 8.5.5 in .1 increments.
is this a normal behaviour? Seems very strange to me that 4 or 5 successive iterations of the same player would have been pushed down the pipe so hard on each others heels.
=========================
Also, was wondering if it is possible to edit the WorldTV99 station list such that, say, only stations that are in English and German are on the list?? Those are the only two languages that I am reasonably fluent in, and all the others just clutter the list.

"About every 24 hours I get the flashing orange update button....", its any user's dream :-). That is NOT common, but the frequent increment has several changes and means the authors are working very hard If it continue to happen, let us know.

Yes, you can use the favorite function to streamline the playlist. Currently there is not a striaght forward function to allow for screening of Only English or Only German channel. I tried that at the beginning of WorldTV99 and have not received any feedback....one way or the other. We will look into it again.

If you have extras-devel in as one of your repositories, than indeed you got the 0.8.7-1 to 0.8.7-5. For 0.8.7 I needed five builds to get the bugs ironed out.
Build 0.8.7-5 is now in extras.

yes, they play perfectly. I am not sure what the "length" bit actually does, I think it's a hint to the player that it's a stream and therefore you can't indicate the end of the program on the progress bar.

I suspect that these streams will only work for people in the UK, or people who find a proxy in the UK to allow them to access the BBC streams.

Quick questions:

Which of the US channels are live streaming?

I was watching the NHL channel but I dont think that one is live. I have the NHL channel at home on satellite and when I turned on World99 at the same time, it wasn't the same as what was on my NHL on satellite.

Here's another vote for Mexican tv. I am particularly interested in soaps, which are great for language learners.

Oh, and about the future of WorldTV99? I think you should consider aiming for an audience including tablet users, but beyond as well.

Maybe you could put an L at the start of the name so we can tell it's a Live stream?
