Hey folks. I know a lot of people liked Xeph's stream, and out of respect for him I didn't share this until now. Here is a quick and short guide to watching Korean progamer or high level players streams.

What Xeph has been saying for the most part is false (nor was it a favour to tl,). Most progamers won't stream unless they want to, regardless of wether somebody asks them to or not. and if they wanted to stream on tl, it would be easy for them to do so. All we were doing is just taking numbers of their streams.

Daum player is watchable from outside Korea. There is though a few (i've only encountered maybe 6 or 7 sc2 streams) that are restricted to people who have a Daum account, which requires a Korean ID. You will tell this by either a happy face or a lock on the top left of the stream image. If you have a Korean ID, you can watch those.

But otherwise most streams don't require this and are watchable (in HD) from anywhere.

so lets get this show on the road. Here are the quick and simple steps to getting daum player on and working.

1, go here http://tvpot.daum.net/live/ and click the clearly labeled player download on the right side of the screen.

2, once downloaded install the program. THe only issue i've had is the fact that it installs a "Daum cleaner" which is a cheap disk cleanup thing. You can uninstall that after the installition is complete.

3. some media files will be associated with Daum player. Which can be charged by right clicking your media files and using the open with command and then changing the program used to open with to your preference. Though Daum is a Decent media player overall and if your not picky you can skip this step.

4. Click on the daum player Icon and get it to load up.

5. There will be a list of streams on the right side of the program. There are little arrows near the bottom of the side bar. use this to natvigate pages.

6, if you are looking for sc2 streams only. Just type in 스타2 for sc2 streams.

7, You're done. Now whenever your feeling in the mood, you can load up daum player and watch a stream. Though I can't say there will be streams on all the time. most evenings Korean time have a few streams going on. Just lat week I watched oGsTop stream for about an hour.


Sorry if this guide seems lacking a bit. I wanted it to be rather simple and consice without making the entire thing look over complicated. Nor do I know Korean, so I can't tell you exactly what options are there. Just look around the setting yourself and eventually you'll figure them out.

Also for all you fans of COH and BW. there are channels that appear for both games. with BW being the most.

I also see large amounts of Anime streams. So you Anime fans, This is the player for you.


EDIT: Guide to getting an account on Daum. Now you can get all stream. Thanks Kiante and Boblhead for the guides.

There Seems to be some problems with europeans having some bad lag with Daum. If this is the case, please let me know

Also you cannot lower the quality of the stream ,you get what you get

most pro players names are in english. So most players who are competing at that level will have english names. Otherwise they might be high level amatuers (and they will have Koren names)

The program comes with online stream thing as dealfault. So check all start menu shortcuts.

The guides there are for the most part outdated, so thats why I didn't link to them, but they are for sure useful. The translations do not work with the current build, trying them might crash Daum

Its cool. For the most part the basic info is the same. Though most would not even look for those guides. hence why I posted this one with updated info.

Have to remember it is not all progamers, a lot are in silver through to diamond. It is just a streaming service for them like jtv or ustream.

Why would it break the law. Daum is very well known in Korea. Even sponsoring a OSL or MSL at one point.

Might be buffering the stream. Or it could be an internet issue on your end.

Wow, nice! Downloading now! I really should have taken korean but hten again... I'm a silverleague player, there's absolutely no hope for me to reach the level they are.

YOu have... okay, you probably do, but it was so extremely strange just going on a leap of faith that this wasn't an, "explode my computer and fill it with horse porn" thingy.

Super laggy though... can' watch it at all :" (
