bradm Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 How heavy/weird/dangerous is the "TVU Player" you have to download and install?Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottieking Posted June 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 So far, so good for me. I'd compare it to a Winamp/Media Player sort of interface. Tell you the truth, I didn't look before I leap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 I use it to watch the World Cup games as well. Although I have broadband, my connection isn't that great for some reason. The best connection I get is of a Chinese channel (which makes it handy to watch all the WEIRD commercials!). I noticed that there are upload and download stats, so I think that TVUplayer works sorta like bit torrent where you share the information. I've also heard that it leaves your computer open to attacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
