thanks to Aepplet and laopang for this
stream is 200kbps but its enough, no buffering at all for me
edit:
SEEMS LIKE THIS HAS A TROJAN THOUGH :[!!!!!

Figures... since when did the Chinese not do a backhanded deal like this?
To be honest, Korean programs have trojans up the ass too... but .. without it.... Live Reports gone would be sooo gay.

I tried it, doesnt work for me bleh
|
actually im not sure about the trojan anymore, it says so on wikipedia but i didnt find those programs mentioned nor did i find any spyware using ad-aware or anything, theres not even a discussion on wikipedia as is usual, seems like someone just wrote that and noone reviewed it... dunno

somebody didn't read the wiki article too closely
It has been found that TVants contains spyware. Once you connect to a particular channel, it connects to mayiad.com/ and it loads on to the user's computer a trojan dropper. The file names are usually rundll.exe, tmp1.exe, csrss.exe, tmp.exe. They are created in the user's Temporary Internet Files and in the Program Files or Program Files/Common Files.

Question: will the program work if I use a firewall to specially block the connection to that site only?

According to http://bbs.tvants.com/dispbbs.asp?boardID=9&ID=8838&page=1
Apparently they removed the supposed spyware from tvants and apologized to its users. At least that's what they say on their forums.
i'll do some checks on my own system.
so far nothing particularly dangerous except cookies...but i've uninstalled tvants until more definite evidence can be found.

csrss.exe IS a standard windows process :p

Well I will wait until there is a final word on whether this shit is safe or not(I just formatted a month ago, dont wanna go through it again so soon ;; ).. But I loved the playsc stream from back in the day and its always so enjoyable to easily watch things live :D

hmm i dnno doesnt seem to have harmed my comptuer so far.. :|

i saw that page but i think the only person you can really trust is the admin's post.
still no conclusive evidence that tvants does/does not install spyware/trojans.
|
Was there a GomPlayer floating around somewhere? Does that work for watching Starcraft as well?
|
GomPlayer? isnt that from gom.ipop.co.kr? you can watch stuff there?
i usually just torrented VODs and just watched it on there O_O
|
This TvAnts is weird for me. I can launch it and use it to watch the other channels on the list, but clicking on http://www.playsc.com/live/ just gives me a page with the text "Download TVants". Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Edit: Nvm apparently you have to use IE instead of FF.
