mobile.tvcatchup.com works a treat, two seperate stream of varying quality depending on your connection, plus the majority of the UK freeview channels.

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

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.
Try this.. needs quick register though

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My guess is they won't due to our outdated 1.6.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.

Thanks for the tip. You can just drop ROD mobile for the month after right?
I went on a trip recently to a location that had limited internet connectivity. I decided to download some movies from the Samsung media hub in advance. Well what do you know when I am finally out of wireless range andI want to watch my movies it won't let me because it wants to connect to the internet. Things like this are why Apple still dominates media heavy devices. If I have paid for a rental I should be able to watch it with or without wireless connectivity for the period that I rented it for.

Wow, how stupid. I just tried it with some TV shows I purchased outright and it needs a signal in order to launch. Once it's launched and you're signed in it allows you to watch what's on your Tab without being connected. But you have to keep it running in the background because if it's closed it'll need a signal again to log you back in. Not really well thought out at all.
You think that's bad......
Samsung Apps won't load without a SIM,
EVEN IF YOU'RE CONNECTED TO WiFi.
Doh!!!
Does Google movies have the same requirements?

Weird...
I have downloaded (bought) movies and TV episodes.... from the Media hub.... several... and watched them on planes, I travel a lot for work and this kills time for me on the plane.
It as worked great, no issues.
I have not tried a rental though, I am going to tomorrow though, going to download / rent a movie from the hub and see if it will play on the plane ride home tomorrow.

After flying home today I found that the rental will not play when their isn't a internet connection.
I am guessing it wants the internet connection so it can verify you have started watching the video? and lock it down after 24 hours?
Movies and TV episodes worked fine though.
This is on a VZW LTE version if it makes any difference.
Pj
do the google market rentals require an internet connection to start playing?

Ugh. This happened to me too! I stocked up on movies for a 12-hour Santiago, Chile to LAX flight only to find out I couldn't watch them without an internet connection. I love the Tab 10.1 over an iPad but you gotta be kidding me. Who thought of this crap?! I was furious. Apple has similar rules but once you start watching it, the device itself will disable it in 24 hours. WTF were they thinking?
Can I just throw out here that all this complaining (which really shouldn't be on XDA, a developer website) is directed towards the tablet, when in reality the problem is one single crappy software application. There's many, many ways to watch video on the tablet that don't require an internet connection. In fact, I'd venture a guess that there's more ways to watch than with the iPad (gasp!). But here you are complaining and comparing tablets, when in reality you should just spend a second figuring out how to watch your videos without the internet connection. I'm sure the time you spent complaining about it (on a developer website) could have been spent looking for a solution. BTW- if you read the not-so-small print on the media hub page you'd know that you needed an internet connection to watch.
General Rule-of-Thumb:
Any app with "Samsung" preceding it's name, you can assume it's ****!

Hello everyone,
Don't be upset...you can play these movies offline...what you have to do is whenever you download or rent a movie you have to play the movie for at least 1 minute while logged in...This is the time that media hub tranfers the license to play the movie offline to your device. I had this same issue as well..but I read the samsung media hub pdf and those were the instructions to play it offline...I know...ITS BASS Ackwards for media hub to deploy it this way...but that is the way it works for....it works well for me and I now have no issues with rentals or purchases. For your guys convenience I"ve attached the pdf from samsung media hub...hope this helps and happy offline movie watching

I've managed to get the TV remote app to work on proper brand name TVs in my house (Samsung, Panasonic), but the TV in my room is a Sanyo. The app lists Sanyo as compatible, but none of the IR codes work on it
I was wondering if anyone knew of a different brand option that might work with the Sanyo TV. The HTC One TV remote has an IR learning option, where if you can't find your TV brand, you simply point the TV remote at the phone's IR sensor, long press the power button, and the app will learn the IR code. The GS4 app doesn't seem to have this option, and I can't find a way to get the remote app to work with my TV.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

It's called WatchON. Apparently the same company (Peel Technologies or something) makes both the GS4 and HTC1 IR remote apps, but the GS4 version is missing some features.

Have you updated the app? It contained some additional IR codes.
AFAIK, there should be an option to email the company, if you can describe it with the model number, etc, I'm sure they'll be able to update the app with some more IR codes.

I've done that (xtrend et6000 in my case). But I got no feedback.

the WatchOn app is a horrible bit of code.
In order to remove an accidentally added remote you have to clear all data in the program and start again.
On top of that they have only 1 or 2 codes for each TV brand, it is really sad how little work went into the program.
Also the GS4 has a IR transmitter, but not a receiver so we could not do a learning setup if we wanted to.
I am looking for a new program which can take advantage of the IR LED but so far have not come up with anything.
There is touchsquid which is not cheap but appears to be probably the most fully featured such program available. Or at least that I can find lol There is also this one which I just ran into yesterday buy haven't had time to peruse yet. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5yZW1vdGVmYWlyeSJd The main problem I have with the latter is that I couldn't find any information on whether they will let you run it for a bit to see how it works. As those who have tried to set up more complex systems with good automation know it can take a while to find the flaws and just to flat get everything working. I would want at least a 10 day trial to make a decision.
I mean is it so hard to implement learning function so that you can take any ir remote and copy its codes to phone!? I've had my Casio wrist watch for more than 14 years now and it has ir functionality and, more importantly, learning function so I can literary control anything that has an ir remote.
Try this free app . It's good
bbs.tiqiaa.com/icontrol/app/icontrol.apk
And you can diy the remote control with an additional hardware from the official website.(not free)

why? galaxy S4 has its own IR.
The watchON app should just have an option to add codes, it would be a great app if it had that.

Care to explain then how to remove a single device, as I walked through every single menu and there is no way of doing it from within the Samsung supplied app that I could see.
And having been a user of android devices since inception I would state that even if it is possible it is far from intuitive.
Has anyone every tried this? I was wondering if it actually works. It would be hilarious to change all the channels at a place like buffalo wild wings.

i don't see why not but most places use a DTV box..I haven't been able to get this working at home yet, can't find the right brand for my cable box in watchon
I done it at a hospital while waiting around during my mom's surgery. Nobody was waiting around so no pranking there, but it was nice to watch something other than talk shows.
Definitely works
I've done this at a sports bar after the waitress made me angry because he wanted to watch some stupid tennis match so I took it on my self to change it. I love watch on.
