By not designing it as an ad. This was pasted right out of a spam email, because certain words have been purposely misspelled to avoid the spam filters. |

We like new friends. We like friends from around the world. We enjoy international cuisine, and talking with others about it here at DSLR.
We really welcome new members to the site. What we really hate, though, is SPAM. And unfortunately your first post sure looks, smells, and reads like it ...

1 edit | If you're like most PC users, you probably feel that there's more you can do on your PC other than working. And you know what? You're right!
You can watch 1000s Of Local And International Satellite TV And Radio Stations on Your PC or Laptop for Fre.e, and also download selections of Movies, TV shows, Games & Software available anywhere in the quickest time possible direct to your PC.
NO subscriptions and NO additional hardware are required. NO Satellite Dish, Receiver, Smart Card or Cable Box is needed!! ! All you need is a PC, media players like Windows Media Player, Real Player or other more advance media players and Internet access.
ut vViewing TV on a PC for Fre.e is not as simple as you may beleive, you need to get the knowledge. In resume you need to know how to:
• Get the appropiate Media Players.
• Configure and Optimize your PC and Media Players.
• Search for Channels.
• Play the video streams provided by the channels.
• Finally storing your favorite channels in a folder within your browser. This is extremely important to be able to get back to them in an easy and fast way.
How is watching LIVE TV in a PC possible?
There are still more then a few countries around the world where Pay Per View (PPV) has not yet been established, and football is televised for free. Broadcasts of some of the TV stations in these countries are available via video streams on the internet.
How good is the quality of the live streams?
The quality depends on the rate at which video streams are transmitted. This quality is measured by the same units measuring how broad you internet connection is: Kb/Sec. Most streams are transmitted at a quality of between 100Kb/Sec and 400 Kb/sec, so if your connection is somewhere around 750 Kbs there is no need to rush off and pay for a broader connection package. 400 Kb/sec is more or less the rate at which it is possible to watch the video stream on a full screen in reasonable quality. For quality lesser than that, the size of the media player's window has to be reduced.
Sounds too good to be true!
While this method might be a good alternative to the good old TV set, there are still some problems associated with it. Millions of people around the world are trying to connect to the servers broadcasting the streams, just as you are. These servers are not designed to support such a large number of users, so the load on them is immense. The number of users each of those servers can support is limited, and sometimes even if you manage to connect to one, the high traffic might impair its functionality, in some cases causing it to crash.
What Hardware/Software do I need to watch live streams?
1. A reasonably good computer (Pentium 3 / AMD K6-II minimum).
2. A broadband internet connection of at least 0.5Mb/sec.
3. Up to date versions of Media Players like Windows Media Player or Real player or other more advance.
