I have searched the entire forum and others and have come up with a few suggestions but none actually work.
Skyfire 2.0 has the loading video window stuck on the screen in front of a perfectly playing live stream of the game behind it, very frustrating.
Ustream loads a frozen image of the game and does not stream on my device.
ESPN3 does not work with Skyfire browser.
Is there any "working" solution to streaming games live on the X10 here in the States?
Actually i watch using ustream.
At least earlier it worked ...
I tired a lot of channels until one of them was fine.
When i saw still images instead of a stream i checked the standard ustream in the browser and i saw the same issue there too.

Thanks for the reply.
I saw 171 views with no reply and I thought it was hopeless.
I tried all the ustream channels with no luck but I have heard others also find success with it so maybe it is a network issue.
It is too bad skyfire development won't fix the loading window error because the video streaming behind it is quite good.
Too bad you are down in south... Rogers Canada user can pay $15 to get all the FIFA2010 on the X10 and iphone.

Agreed.
I would definitely pay the $15.
Does anyone know how that works? It's $5 for rogers on demand mobile and another $10 for the "world cup premium package". What does the world cup premium package do if you can already get content from CBC with the $5 package?
I am using the rogers on demand app. It works flawlessly, quality is great amd there is no buffer or skipping. It is 5 a month to use the app and a one time 10$ fee for access to the world cup matches. Worth every penny for the matches but will not use it after. Little to no content otherwise.

This works wonderfully with one exception as stated in my opening post.
The loading window freezes at 50% and the game is playing flawlessly behind it!
The skyfire devs know about it but haven't provided a fix.
My guess is they won't due to our outdated 1.6.
ustream working well today.
I could not get one station to stream yesterday.

Just go to mobile.tvcatchup.com (or m.tvcatchup.com) set up an account and login, streams are viewed via the streaming app, however I think it only works if in the uk..
Oh it appears that mobile.tvcatchup.mobi doesn't work but m.tvCatchup.mobi does? Lol
Thank you! I'll be watching the world cup on there! Seems to be better quality than yamgo

From this BBC blog, the new iplayer mobile site for android has been released and uses Flash to deliver its content. It says you need Froyo 2.2 and Flash installed, then just goto iplayer site.
But has anyone managed to get it working, mine just constantly tries to load the video.
Every video I tried failed to load - can't remember the error message now. On wifi too.
Still bookmarked it though.

Doesn't that kind of defeat the object of it? The mobile stream is a 400kbps optimized stream which should look a LOT better than a non-optimised stream through the full site.
It works now!!
still friggin unavailable outside uk
Go sign up with a $10 month vpn service to Europe. Been using that for awhile to watch commercial-free broadcasts of formula 1 races from the BBC.

Because its paid for by our TV licenses, ie its not free.
I get the error saying that I should use Wifi to access the service as 3G is limited to Vodafone and 3 only. Except my phone IS connected to Vodafone.
Will try with Wifi when I get home.
Yep, same problem.
Wifi fine, Voda 3G = no go.
works a treat now over wifi!
I'm just getting the normal desktop site when I go to the following URL, is there a special one?
http://beta.bbc.co.uk/iplayer
yup and our tv fee's are going up year on year so the rest of the world can get a cheap proxy and watch for free surely this is theft same as stealing cable etc.
I think the bbc's corporate arm should have a paid version of iplayer for use outside the uk, i dont think UK residents should pay for other countries to use it.
just a personal annoyance of mine.
or better still get rid of the f*cking fee's altogether

It doesn't work in US. However, I can access "normal" version of iplayer using skyfire.
It doesn't show up BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Radio Ulster either, and there's no live service.
After weeks of messing around with settings, re-installs, et al, I find that support for UK users using Skyfire has been removed.
The following is a quote from Skyfire support:
"We've consolidated datacenter operations in the US. Because all connections now appear to come from the US you may not be able to access sites that block non-UK traffic by IP address."
I noticed this because I could only see the international version of BBC News website, which includes adverts, and some videos don't work. TVcatchup doesn't work either.
See http://support.skyfire.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=5949&st=0&gopid=30616&#entry30616 for further details, including my grumpy reply.
Don't worry... I'm a Brit in the US... The damn Beeb won't let me watch anything of theirs... I want all those TV license monies I gave them for all those years... Cheap bastiges!!!

It's really annoying isn't it. One little change at their end and suddenly most of my favourite sites have stopped working. Back to Opera I suppose - but it's not the same.
At least there's the fantastic MyPlayer app for watching iPlayer (although I assume it's not ex-pat friendly).

The TV Licence fees you already paid were for the years that you used ol' Auntie Beeb.
The only solutions are a UK proxy (either paid for or free) or, I think, MyPlayer - which uses its own fileserver of 'borrowed' BBC programmes.

I was in the military for 10 years where I spent 6-10 months of each year unable to see a TV. I should at least get a rebate...

Just to confirm MyPlayer does work outside of the UK as I used it to download some programmes before a plane trip back from Spain last week.

Explain what you did, what you downloaded...every detail please.
For some reason Skyfire is able to stream flash content on this site. Click on the video icon and wait for it to buffer. You'll see the player pop up and then the live channel streams.
Skyfire uses a server based flash implementation..it decodes flash video on a server and sends it to you in h.264.
This is not flash on the xoom.

I think he's just trying to explain skyfire has always run flash in browser. It's not a recent work around or even something new, and it works on pretty much all flash videos.

No, it's not.
Exactly - it has nothing to do with Flash.
I am curious how long will they be able to keep it up - who is paying for all this traffic created and servers.
Skyfire is no longer providing its services in Poland - maybe they start to be the victim of their own success?
I want to see real Flash and if I will be able to watch HULU for free like on the PC.

Well - thank you Samsung.
MLB.tv updated the AtBat2011 app today to include live streaming on Android devices. Woohoo, right?
Well, not so much. Because Samsung has delayed the official FroYo release for the Epic, the Evo is the only Sprint Device that is supported for live video streaming. Of course, I'm sure my ACS FrozenROM could handle the requirements, but because the Epic isn't officially supported the video option doesn't even show up.
I doubt there are any tricks to spoof device ID, but if anybody has any ideas, that would be great.
Otherwise, I just have one more reason not to buy another Samsung device again. Or, more properly, one more reason to be upset about the FroYo release (or lack thereof).
Here's the link to the app: https://market.android.com/details?...android.gameday.atbat2011.full&feature=banner
I feel your pain on this one. I got the update this morning and was psyched about it. But I was quickly let down when I notice my Epic wouldn't work!!
Thanks for this update. I almost bought it yesterday, then I saw that MLB partnered up with Apple for a free month trial for iPhone users. Hoping for the same Android deal, I see that it's wrought with problems still and not ready for primetime.
The Nexus S is supported, so is there a way to spoof the Epic as a Nexus S? I thought I remember seeing somewhere that one of the ROMs was using a modified market using a Nexus S identifier. Could the same approach be used here?
LIVE GAMES!? GET THIS TO WORK, NOW!!!! I always loved getting the radio feeds but if I can get the actual games, I'd freak the hell out...
speaking of that...when i goto mlb.com on a winmo device..gameday doesnt drop down anymore???? i havent found a way for gameday to come up on the epic, if there is one. but i also would love to listen to the games, anyway to do this on the epic??
Yea, the MLB app. It's $14 but well worth it if you use it as much as I do. I'm dying for live stream of games.

Not without some kind of tweak it appears, I've got the MLB11 App and I'm on Bonsai and don't see any live video options so it seems to still be reading it as an Epic.

If you can afford it, get Slingbox. They run from $150 to $250... The Solo (the lesser priced one- beware) has some issue with capacitors.. Anything that you can get on your TV can easily be forwarded to your device. I have an Epic, as well. Slingbox forwards me my MLB account (from Roku)... I also get Netflix, Hulu Plus, and lots of other stuff.. music YouTube, International News, etc. If I have a net connection, I can watch and listen to anything on my TV or Roku
To afford all this, I cut my Uverse account back to basic at $19 a month plus box rental. I was spending $90 a month prior to hooking up Roku and Slingbox. One time investment only for Slingbox and Roku. You will have to fork out the $29 for the Slingbox Mobile for Android app to accomplish this. It includes clever remote control codes to manipulate your TV and other hardware at home.
MLB looks fabulous on Roku this year. Last year, it was problematic. This year, great.
You'll be watching the World Series and all the playoff games without forking out any more money. It's a great way to go. Im saving a lot of money. I use it off and on when work is slow.. watch a couple innings, etc.. When we travel, I use it.. .I also use the Sling software on my laptop.
So if live radio working? I want this app.

So I went ahead and installed CM7 Alpha 1 to see if that works, but no such luck. When I go to my account on the market (web version) it shows the phone as a Samsung SPH-D700 under Model. When I'm on another ROM it shows up as just SPH-D700 and the manufacturer is the same in both cases (Samsung)
