Here's an alternative for us macs

sometimes they have ABC, NBC, CBS, and Fox also.

It's browser based so it will work for anyone.

My mate also has a Mac and reckons he watches Live Football (Prem games too) here. Not tried it yet. Let us know if you have any luck.

Bump.

Would love a developer to sort this out. Seriously, how hard can it be?

Hi,

I use the live footy site and you can watch on a mac. Look for the apple sign next to the links for games and it works fine through real player. They tend to have only the "big 4" teams on offer for mac viewers.

I'm a Man Utd fan and watch almost every league/cup game through this site. I also use RTS channel 2 (Radio Television Serbia) to watch UTD games online, just go to their homepage and click on the link for tv 2, all Utd games are live on there, for some reason.

If anyone knows of better sites let me know

Bobby

The sometimes have matches embedded into a flash player (thus multi-platform) or :mms feeds (can open with VLC on a Mac). They're pretty rare though.

try wine or crossover

To run windows programs in *nix systems, such as mac os X, gnu/linux, freebsd, ... you can try wine (wine is no and emulator, but an api to run natively windows apps).

www.winehq.com

The problem with wine is that it's mac version was developed by the darwine project, now extincted, and so the only way to run freely (no cost) wine over mac is to compile it (you might find some info on gogole).

On the other hand, you can give a try to Crossover, a commercial wine version.

Good luck!

I tried to use the livefooty website and there was no Mac link, so I am curious as to what you mean.

We were talking about running windows apps over macos [wine, crossover, darwine, ...]

I tried to use the livefooty website and there was no Mac link, so I am curious as to what you mean.

I mean running windows apps on macosx with the help of wine (www.winehq.com, but you'll have to compile it to make it run on macos, or perhaps search for an old compiled release for macosx such as darwine) or its forks (such as those of codeweavers, such as crossover for mac, but it's not freeware nor shareware)

I hope you'll find this info useful.

Good luck!
Alex

Sorry, you talked about earlier in this thread. I think they were talking about protocol-related links (realaudio, I think) on that livefooty site, and not any macosx-version of their software
