Northern Wish Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Hangout Festival is webcasting this weekend but you can't view the video from Canada.I have had this problem before and the program I used to use is now so buggy that half the time it spoofs my address to another country where the content is not viewable- not to mention the pop ups are killing me.What do you folks use? I prefer a nice easy free ware type thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau. Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Unblock us offers a one week trial (if you haven't already tried it I suppose). http://www.unblock-us.com/Good enough if you're just looking to watch a webcast over the weekend.I had the same issues, was sick of pop ups, unreliable service etc so I went with a one year sub after my trial ended.

Esau. Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Another option is TOR. I tried it years ago and it worked great but I can't vouch for it today. Has good and bad rep mainly due to how it works.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_(anonymity_network)https://www.torproject.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Im going home Donny Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I do love this shit but at the same time I assume that this kinda thing must be how child pervs hide right??? They caught this freak but yesterday our area had a warning out about a fugitive American perv possibly in the Grey/Bruce area posing as an NHL scout...on this day our son decided to not go directly to his bus and not answer the calls for him...nightmare...he was simply real close by and ignoring the calls but got me thinking about this kinda thing and also about how the Canadian sex offender list is invisible to the Canadian public. Still though..hide my ass is good and American Netflix kicks our Netfixs ass....what ya gunna do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The D Funk Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 what are u using i cant seem to find one to work for this stream Donny ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 yeah, unblock-us works great for stuff like this. I subscribed after only having the free trial for a couple of days. Netflix is incredible with unblock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The D Funk Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Tom Petty was definitely not on my stream last night? Anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted May 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Me either. Same thing happened on Friday night- the live stream cut out right before Kings of Leon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaggyBalls Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 What about Hola Unblocker?Anybody try it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 I've heard it works great. It's browser based and works perfectly there. One can't configure a device to stream. Unblock-us is setup on the router, so everything that goes through it is unblocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau. Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 (edited) Yeah, Hola works alright. It has it moments though. I found when using it while listening to Pandora (for example) if I left it running too long I had to reboot my pc or at very least close chrome (only tried chrome extension) and restart. After about 3hrs chrome would be taking up almost 90% of my cpu resources. Other then that no major complaints. It's simple, browser based and free. Only downside I would give it is that you have to search the web for the scripts to any sites not added to Hola default list (they only offer a few) and if you don't completely know where to look, or what you're looking for, at, or how to run the scripts it can be frustrating.[edit to add] Another strike (as bouche mentioned) is you can only use it from your desk/laptop.
