I gotta give props to speedkilz88 on this one.. he came up with the info.. i grabbed it from another thread, but i tried it and it is gonna work, so i thought it deserved its own thread.. here's what you do:

http://www.tvunetworks.com/downloads/index.htm

download the tvuplayer.. then when the player comes up, choose the 10018 CBS station.. right now, it is playing a kids show called "LazyTown", which is correct according to the station's official website program listings, which shows the Cowboys game also.. http://cbs5.com/programming

enjoy!!

Bless you!

The channel guide com es up but nothing happens. Any ideas??

Try shutting down your PC and starting it up again. See if rebooting it works. It's worth a try.

These 49er announcers are brutal, but it's way better than watching the Commanders game (the only one on my tv). Not only does that one guy call Copper "Cooper", but he also said "Anthony Bryant"

haha, Amen. I'm in Alexandria as well. Got the Commanders game on TV. THeir Defense is looking pretty porous.. They did have Sean Taylor try to return a punt though.

Maroney is a beast.

You probably could just open up the port in your firewall in Norton that it is trying to access.

6. tvuPlayer cannot be initialized, please check the network connection

This can have two causes as far as I know. First you need to check your firewalls settings if it blocks the ports that tvu player needs to connect to the channel list and the streaming clients. Second it could be that you are using a proxy server which does not allow connection to the tvuplayer at all.

Quoted from the comments of Worldcup Preparations post. (thanks gornea)
At start TVU Player uses UDP 3950, 3951 and 3952 then at least one of TCP 3950, 3951 or 3952. The TV channels list is obtained from a connection on port TCP 8080. All those connections are made to the server previously mentioned by others. When you choose a TV channel it uses UDP 3940 and then a TCP connection to 3940. Then you just get a rain of connections to other servers using UDP/TCP combinations. In the end it settles to only UDP streaming between peers and an brief TCP reconnection for control and status I guess.

If you have the google or yahoo tool bar make sure you go into the popup blocker and allow the player to stream.

Might just be a firewall of some sort on your ISP.

Can you open the TVU Player? It should be on your programs menu.

Does anyone know what the heck Antonio Bryant just said? I heard "hit somebody in the mouth" and the rest was mush.

 

[X-Dawg]

Can someone translate in English what Antonio Bryant just babbled
