First, you would need to install a TV card in your computer. There are many
TV cards both PCI and USB2 that would work great for live TV. Here are some
brands: Hauppauge WinTV Go, WinTV-PVR 150, ATI TV Wonder 200, PinnacleSystems
PCTV, etc. Once the TV card is installed and your Cable tv or antenna is
connected, download and install uViewIt Software from here.
At this point your are ready to watch your own Live TV from anywhere, change
channels, and embed your TV in your own web site. Be sure to log on to your
Control Panel and configure your TV viewing settings.
Remember that your computer with your TV card must be "always on" and have an
Internet connection. To play your TV in your web page, see the FAQs below for
instructions.
Yes, you can play multiple video/audio streams at the same time. Here's how:
Many versions of Windows still contain the Classic Windows Media Player 6.4. To
open this player, click Start -> Run, then type "mplayer2.exe" (without quotes),
and hit Enter. If you see Windows Media Player start, then you have the 6.4
version. If not, you can download it
here.
Then, on the WMP 6.4 menu select View -> Options. Then select the Player tab and
choose "Open a new player for each media file played" then click OK.
Now to Play Multiple Streams:
Click on the video stream link you want to watch (your newer WMP player should
start playing it). While the video is playing in this player, right click on it
and select Properties. Now highlight the URL next to Location: , then Copy it
(Ctrl-C), open WMP 6.4, if it's not already open, hit Ctrl-O and Paste (Ctrl-V)
the URL into the Open dialog box and click OK.
Your video stream should now start playing. When you first play the video WMP
6.4 may need to download and install a codec. You can now close the other WMP.
Repeat these steps for each video stream you want to watch.
If you get error: 0xC00D1197 (Cannot Play this file), the most popular
solution is to reinstall your version of Windows Media Player. For example, if
you have WMP 10 then reinstall that version.
Also, look

Yes, you can download the 3ivx codecs that uViewIt uses to record in iPod
format from: www.3ivx.com
I think there is a small cost for these codecs, but it is worth it if you
want to play on QuickTime/iPod, Oh, and I also noticed the 3ivx videos play
perfect on YouTube where all the other codecs I tried had problems.
Microsoft Windows Media Player 9
Microsoft DirectX
To fix this error you will need to install
Windows
Media Player 9 or better and reboot the system.

Also, you can convert from the very large AVI format to ASF format.
ASF (Microsoft Windows Advanced Streaming Format. Use Windows Media
On-Demand Producer to obtain the ASF format. Get it from
here
To fix this error try the following:
Locate the ''Internet Options'' section in IE and verify that ''Active
Scripting'' was enabled.
Also, if you are using IE7, in the Settings area of the ''Security'' tab find:
''Activex Controls and Plugins'' then locate the selection titled ''Display
video and animation on a web page that does not use external media player'' and
make sure it is set to ''Enable.''
Yes, just download the Kinoma Player:
