i like Livestation. The interface is dope as hell, carousel mode rocks. but for some friggin reason, I can't watch certain channels. It just says on the screen " TV Tokyo Connecting... Connected... Connecting... Connected... " over and over again. On other channels, for example, it says "Sony Music (Japan) Connecting... Connected... Acquiring... 10%... 20%... 90%... 100%" then it shows the channel.

Come on Livestation TV Tokyo, get your act together. :/

Livestation still rocks though. :) It's better than paying an extra $25 a month on my cable bill to get TV Japan.

... I'm still gonna be paying it though. lol

So now questions about live station. By the way, I am usually at work when I'm posting on here so I can't look at the links you guys post (restricted). I make phone calls all day, so it's ok. How long to download? How much space does it take? How many channels? Are they good channels? No lag?

I'm running a Mac, so if your running a windows, then you know. It may vary.

The download time is not long at all, a minute or so I'm thinking. Kinda forgot. It takes up about 64.4 MB. They have a decent selection of channels. I usually stick to the Japanese ones, which has around 30 something (by the way, there some Audio Only Channels). And, from my experience, the lag (if any) is not noticeable enough to ruin your viewing.

However, as I wrote previously, some channels didn't come up for me. I don't know if y'all go through that too. Probably not though.

I have livestation and like it, except for the fact that about half the channels do not come up for me. It just keeps saying connecting. For instance NHK G, NHK E, Animax, etc. The radio stations work though. =(

Thats EXACTLY what I mean brother. Some of the channels I really want to see ain't showing up :(

it's an awesome idea, but it's just lacking some.

I'm just trying to figure out why some work and some don't. It doesn't make any sense. If they're all coming from the same place, shouldn't they stream in just like the others?

One thing that could explain this. "This channel is not offered as part of the Livestation service. For this reason we are not responsible for its quality or reliability." That's labeled on all the channels I want to see (The Japanese Channels). So my guess is since these channels are not an "Official" channel, Livestation can't/won't do nothing when a *technical difficulty* situation arrises. And maybe why they ain't streaming properly. :(

I know this is an old thread but whatever. I just got Keyhole tv and so far I'm pretty satisfied with it. My only complaints is that I wish there were more channels and how the video occasionally messes up. These video mess ups arent much of a problem though and only last for a second or 2. the longest was problem 5 seconds.

I'm actually watching Nihon TV as I'm typing this! I'm glad I came across this thread :smile:
