Hi

I have been watching YES TV form the Sopcast link up until recently. Now it says I need to use VLC player to view this. I have downloaded VLC player byt when I hit the link you put up to YES via Spocast it does not seem to connect to the VLC I downloaded. How can I get YES to play in VLC player please:o

Click on the YES Sopcast & let the channel buffer up and play. Your screen will be black. Then Open VLC > Click Media > Open Network > Enter http://127.0.0.1:8902 (http://127.0.0.1:8902) > Click Play.

Alternatively in options on sopcast point the external player to VLC then hit the button next to fullscreen and it'll open it in VLC.

Burdock has a friend who swears that VLC is the only way to go if watching a stream in a shed.

hi
yes you will be asked to download and install the veetle plug in
it is safe to do so it has been around a few years now and always scans clean each update ,which is frequent at times , then just refresh the veetle page and stream will start

i use veetle whenever i can now quality is normally spot on
a bit digitization sometimes but soon clears

edit or what Sten said above :)
