Shameless plug: Check this out... latest project!

Little project I have been involved in that has just launched. Most of the backend code (the bit that does the recording off-air and streaming) is by my own hand...

Query by channel then programmes beinging with P gives:

Excellent

Could have done with this last night, whilst having an 'insomniac' episode!

Thanks for pointing it out.

Sadly cannot sign up either
the country code and the gender ( ) drop down boxes don't work, so it wont let you sign up...... reported that bug through the site though.

It is watchable if you chose something from the left hand menu though.

Very nice!

Makes that Sky+ subscription seen a waste of money now

Same problem as Fozzie thought, cannot signup due to nothing in country and gender dropdown.

A suggestion:

Play the video in a separate window that can be floated above other windows?

Keep the TV ontop of what you are doing?

(who annoys the developers at work with lots of silly suggestions )

Looks good but you might want to get your lawyers ready. I can see cease and desist orders coming your way.

There are lots of ways we could make the TV more 'watchable', but at the end of the day the site is funded by advertising (or will be - we need to hit certain user targets before we can get any ads that are worthwhile). This means we have to ensure that people see the adverts and doing fullscreen, floatable windows, etc would hide the ads meaning far less income.

I'm expecting that to be the case too. Luckily, out of the team of three that are behind the project, we have one techy (me!), one artisitic guy who does the website side of things, and a solicitor who will deal with the legal fallout. According to him there is a loophole we can use, which is where the whole project started from. I guess time will tell though!

Just added a load more to the recording schedule, so will be even more choice in 24 hours or so time.
