We would proudly present to maemo5, WorldTV99 for N900 is now on maemo.org/downloads/multimedia, http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/worldtv99/, click the install button, you are done with WorldTV99 installation. Then click KMPlayer and mplayer installation, all graphic interface, no command line needed, now sit back and pick your channel :)
Installation: Install WorldTV99 by enabling Extras-Devel and disable after installing, or just go /maemo.org/download/multimedia/WorldTV99. They are ALL optified, so dont have to worry about optificaton. Install mplayer is recommended. Just install on top of earlier version is OK. When installing WorldTV99, KMPlayer will be automagically installed if it is not done so. Open KMPlayer, WorldTV99 is right there. CableTV without cable/fees. DyrectTV without dish TeeVo without trouble JustWatch! No. There is NO subscription fee and is NOT a paid app Menu: TV channels are alphabetically organized accordidng to country, so Albania will go before Canada. Local TV are organized according to city, like Seatle, Washington will be at USA Seatle Washington, according to letter 'S' rather than 'W', so and so forth. When there is more than 1 channel, they will be grouped into a folder, and inside the folder, it is also grouped alphabetically according to name of the station, ABC will go before CBS. When nothing is playing, tap on the folder expand/collapse the folder. click on channel, they will play. Click on kmplayer>Select Player to switch between mplayer and osso-media-server, npp is flash player, will kick in automatically. If using flash, the title will expand into several rows, select .avi or .mp4 to see video, not the one with the pink dot. If a folder or channel has a lot of programs, it will take some minutes to load, be patient Click on the screen will open up user menu Right arrow - previous channel pause - pause :) Left arrow - next channel square - exit to TV channel flower button - add to favorite To back all the way up to the main TV menu, tap on screen, go to user menu on top border>New, that will take you back to 1st level. Tap on a folder will expand it and collapse it, or use the hardware keyboard, right arrow will take you all the way back to 1st level. Tweaks on mplayer and its use, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...460#post522460 On the built-in player, you can navigate the channels thru the arrow keys even on full screen mode. On the mplayer, you can get a full screen view, no black borders on either side, plus a lot of OSD options, touch the screen and press 'o' to get to OSD. Bottom lines, built-in player plays smoother but mplayer plays more formats. There are more than 45 countries, with more than 200 channels, each further breaks down to many different programs. The way I use WorldTV99 is to add programs you like to favorite and just watch favorite. User feature requests are welcome useful links: Some useful tweaks about mplayer, like kick up its volume, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=36366 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=37479 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ight=worldtv99 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=21849 A list of ALL TVchannel on previous versions http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=18769 VCURLs72 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=19044 93 TV channels A list of ALL TVchannels are coming.............

We think that they would be thrilled to know at least one TV station on earth carries their broadcast :) and sure, I worked there sometime in the past ) ========================================== Update WorldTV99.0.4.2.0 .......USA ..............Discovery > ...................Animal planet ............. National Geographics ..............NPR ..............PBS > ....................Nature ....................Nova Science ..............Reuters (10 stations) ..............

Dutch ......Turkey > ...........25+ stations, some dont operate 24/7, so check back, thanks to Arif (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...564#post504564 thread #25) =========================================== - a big house cleaning from previous version, a lot of dead links are deleted, make this version scrolling much preppier. Dead link is a natural progression of more and more internet media is using flash. And the change left behind dead links. On top of this, getting the URL from flash is much more difficult (or impossible) as it is NOT available from the internet media. I hate to say, WorldTV99 will stay as long as the links remain alive, enjoy while you can, JustWatch! Some people has questions about the "timeliness" of the news or the TVcontent. Since WorldTV99 inception (4/2008), I have noticed there is a trend of timestamp internet streaming materials, most major news channel clearly display the date/time of their news. I noticed, the 6:30 Pm evening news will be available at 10 PM, so, its about 3.5 hr delay, I still call it news. While some program will refresh/update their content on a weekly basis (e.g, PBS) and some content may even go live (Presidential debate and olympics), so there is a wide range of "timeliness" among programs. I wound NOT label ALL of these are dated. Bugs: A:V desync on some links when play with mplayer: 1) download the clip and play from N900 rather than streaming .....................2) touch screen>'O'>'D' this enables frame dropping, video quality may drop a bit, but A:V is now sync. More mplayer tricks here, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=44206 - Too much buffering? touch the screen once when happens, and said to yourself, "thank you WorldTV99", the buffering will go away. Try and report back, thanks, - Some of them use mms://, and sometimes they do not stream well on 1st try, just shut it off and retry, they will work flawlessly. Sometimes, just a tap on the screen will also fix it. Discussion/comments/feedback/complaints/rotten tomatoes/anything are welcomed! Please vote here, http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...dtv99/0.4.1-1/, so that more users can enjoy what you are enjoying, we need 10 votes, please Fees: Press the Thank you button :) Want to look before you buy (just a joke, there is no $ involved, no subsription or anything, JustWatch!) Here is a youtube clip when running WorldTV99, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID0y11TzQ4g. What? youTube is too small? Ummmm..... I got something slightly bigger, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=43549.

Zeigler Zimmerfrei Both USA and German channels are listed. Yes, they are kind of big and swollen, we wonder why :) Tipbits Dead link? Very very rare, I have personally watch every single channel, some of them may NOT be 24/7, so check back if you think you encounter a dead link. And some 'dead' link I may leave them in for a brief period of time to see whether it will "resurret" by self, usually these are real good quality stuff and too good to drop. Of course, switch between mplayer and built-in media player to check things out is always the right step. Stuttering? reboot may solve it, occasionally WorldTV99 for N900 bunanson and koos, 1/2010 |

For you to watch TV thru streaming, you need to be online, that is what people do with TV, JustWatch! Well, you cannot afford the bandwidth or whatnot, you have the option to dl the program 1st then watch without being online. Problems: It takes time to dl, and you need space to keep the file. Whatever suits you, KMPlayer and WorldTV99 has the option to store the programs for future enjoyment, just like TiVo; like Victoria just confided with me a secret, people always dl their show and watch over and over again :), their show is under USA>mod-tv, it really should be model TV, but what the heck, that is what they called themself, I want to stay true to the original. Slowly, I would start to highlight changelog with time goes by, to crank out this baby, the update, exhausted me for the last several days :) , I enjoy every single bit of working with koos, my partner, he is cool :-) bun |

In general, links to .flv, .mp3, .mp4, and sometimes .wmv files can be saved. I often do that to store some podcasts that I then listen in the bus during the week. You can save many files simultaneously. Just keep kmplayer running on the background for the download. If you close it, and some downloading is in progress, go back to the download page, click the item and choose 'resume'. Also when the internet connection has gone down (though you may first have to 'suspend' it first). |
Re: [Announcement] WorldTVN900 is here......in Extras-Devel
MediaBox on the N900 will get support for WorldTV99, too. :)

To dl media files, make sure you specify file location. Obviously SD is the best, otherwise unattended dl into N900 may get you into trouble, just a rough guideline, 1 min video is about 12 MB, so beware. bun |
