How to watch Live TV channels on the Acer Aspire One

November 1st, 2009 John No comments

There are several ways of watching Tv on the Linux Version of the Acer Aspire One.

I’ve already covered in these articles  how to watch BBC IPlayer, BBC Live Channels and ITV Player, but I’ve found a great site which streams most of the Freeview Channels through a web browser.

There is a new Brilliant site for streaming TV channels including most of the Freeview channels

The site is TVCatchup.com and as long as you have a British based ISP you can choose to watch live streams of a number of TV Channels including: All BBC channels, all ITV Channels, Dave, Sky news Channels and several more.

The video streaming works really well and the Acer Aspire One handles the video very well even when full screen.

A total list of available channels is shown below:
