In the UK most of these channels don't in fact seem to work, I'm using an ATV2 so it might be down to that or Geolocking but here's a roundup -
I either get no reaction at all from XBMC when selecting the channel, or a brief "working" followed by absolutely nothing at all or a brief working following by "one or more items failed to play, a couple say working for ages before giving the playback failed error.
All the HD Channels that have a watermark in the bottom left similar to (([])) seem to work fine, but im assuming all those streams come from the same provider.
Don't Work:
+23, A&E, ABC, ABC News 24, Aljazerra News, Aljazerra HQ , Animal Planet HD,
AXN, BBC One, BBC Parliament, BBC World, BBC World News, Bloomberg, C-Span 1,2,3, CBN Live, CBN News, CBS, Chelsea Tv,City News toronto
CMC, CMC county, CNBC US EU, All of CNN, Current TV, CW, Daystar, Discovery HD showcase, E!, All of ESPN, EWTN, Fox News Talk Radio, Fox Soccer, Fuel Tv, FX, God, HGTV, HLN News, Information TV,Motors TV, MSNBC International, MSNBC English, Nasa, Nat Geographic, NBC 2 , NBC8, News X, OC 16, Pentagon, all of QVC, Red Bull, RTE 1 , RTE 2, Shop NBC, showcase, showcase 2, sky poker, sky sports 1, sky sports 4, speed, spike
syfy, TBD, TCN, Teen Nick,Times Now, TLC, Tru TV, twit, twit live, University of California.
Seems odd in the case of Aljazerra, Fox and the BBC as I have the separate addons for those and they all work fine in that.
The below all work fine:
BBC HD
BBC World #2
BIO HD
Cinemax - ok (v.low quality stream and appears to be another language)
Cinemax HD - OK but seemed to be Eurosport Live HD
comedy Central HD - ok
Disney HD XD - ok
Food Network - Looks like a video cd circa 1995
Fox News - Watchable but doubt even SD resolution
HBO - In Polish
HBO2 OK
France 24 - Audio Stream only? is it a radio station?
Intelligence 2- ok
ITV2 HD - ok
ITV3 HD -ok
MGM HD - ok
NBC - ok
Nat Geographic HD - In Polish I think
NHK World - ok
NHK World HD - ok
TBN - Again looks like a video cd circa 1995
TNT - ok watchable but not SD resolution
I haven't poked around in the logs yet and probably won't until tomorrow now, but let me know if you think the log would be of help.
Cheers.
