What is the difference between this and PPLive? Does it use the same peers or is it a different sharing arrangement altogether? Will PPLive not get Star Sports?
I have downloaded it but im not that good at computer stuff... is it the right thing that I have done, ive downloaded the version 0.3.2 but I dont know how to start running the program or install it. please help
It seems that Star Sports was removed from the channel list. Nooooo! Won't get to see the quarterfinals tomorrow, if that's the case.
You should unzip the file to a folder. Open that folder, and click on the Sopcast icon. That should start up the program.
ok thanks a lot.. and yes star sports is also removed from my com, are there another channel which shows WC quarters
those in singapore, guess you can watch it on channel 24 (star sports) as well. the schedule is the exact same schedule as hong kong.
A little trick I noticed. If you can't understand and don't want the Chinese commentary on Star Sports and are watching it on SopCast, disconnect your right speaker. All I have is the sound in the gym now. Great.
justin - how are you recording it from sopcast? I've tried recording it but it's doesn't play back in VLC or MPC...
