Website to watch TV on iphone

tv catchup

probably been mentioned but try the iphone tvcatchup - its freeview channels that can be viewed on the iphone - excellent quality stream too
 
I dont get this, what am i doing wrong? I've got a jailbroken iphone 3gs on a high speed wifi, im putting the address into safari on my iphone, choosing a show at random, and all im getting is redirection to a 'movshare' website, a button above saying download movie here, and below that a space, with 'please wait a few minutes for the movie to load! except it doesnt do anything. Any ideas?
 
Thanks a lot for this it works great and looks awesome.

How quickly is it loading up for you? Do you have to have some sort of divx/xvid app installed on your phone for it to work? all i seem to get is 'please wait for the movie to load' or whatever it says at the bottom. no picture at all.
 
Make sure you guys are clicking the play button that comes up in the box @movshare....to load the quicktime video.

Hi uneek,

I'm looking for this play button but can't actually see it anywhere. I don't know if i have a problem with my phones browser or something? Just all im getting is the blue screen on movshare, i can even show you a screenshot, but theres the big 'DOWNLOAD MOVIE HERE' button above, a big space where i believe the movie should be, and below 'please allow a few minutes for movie to load'. underneath that theres some stuff about embedding, and a bit that says if i cant see the movie i need to download a windows or mac divx web player. What am i doing wrong?
 
Oh got it, i had the plug ins option switched off in my settings in safari. God knows why. Thanks! whats this orbit downloader people are on about to download directly to the phone?

Hmm. When a broadcaster transmits something (whether recorded or live) they put it 'on air'. When you watch it on your TV the signal is coming off the air (hence the phrase 'off-air'). That's why an off-air feed and a live feed (in the way you mean) are exactly the same thing. As someone who has worked for the BBC for eleven years, you can trust me on this one.

I'm confused. I'm on wifi. If I click on a show, I get a page with "Download" and "Play in Mediaplayer" buttons. I click "Play in MediaPlayer" and the player comes up for about 2 seconds (with no video), and then back to the Safari page. What am I doing wrong?

Same exact issue. The option to tap the little play button doesn't even show up. However it works on my wife's iphone with no issues
