    Well now that you have your 1st post, see the 1st option in my initial post.

    Edit: Btw, SopCast is working fine for me as-I-type.

    Yeah, it would be a nice move if everybody starts doing this.

    I wouldn't mind paying as well, since I was actually already paying for TVBS-E until it was canceled by my cable provider. Can't get any satellite signals from my house either, so streaming is the only option for me.

    Thanks. It's a shame the TVB sopcast stream is down again. Hopefully it'll return at some point...

    SopCast has been going down quite often lately, I can only hope it does return ... unlike that I-Cable Movies 1 channel that made a disappearing act some time ago.

    Also "option 1" was great while it lasted. I was getting near TV quality. I have been trying to find some alternatives, but none are as good as that deceased "option 1".

    Anyway, I have added some additional streaming options to the thread. I'm currently using PPStream most of the time since that gives me the best performance (no buffering, hanging, etc.), but to setup everything so I can stream it on TV is a pain in the butt.

    Hmc

    Has HMC been around for awhile now?

    I only noticed it recently when the channels refreshed.. do new channels always pop up now and then?

    Not that I recall. Then again, the list of channels can be quite dynamic. What's here today might not be there tomorrow and viceversa. It all depends on the volunteers that decide to broadcast these channels from day to day.

    So enjoy the channels while they are there and keep in the back of your mind that they will be gone one day. It will prevent future frustration :)
