hi, i was wondring if there was a way (as i don't have setanta etc.) of watching motorport other than those on terrestrial/freeview - particularly DTM, but also any others really - for free either on computer or preferably on TV, but i don't know if either of these are possible. any help much appreciated.

p.s. yes i do make a lot of threads if you're going to flame me don't bother posting.

Between Motors TV, Eurosport, ITV and BBC you'll get just about every British-Broadcasted motor race there is [if I understand you right - Motors + Euro + ITV 4 = Sky]

motors tv? wtf is that?

Like, any petrol heads dream

Basically car programmes 24/7, with live races sometimes and lots of reviews of lesser categories, e.g Scottish Minis, US Superbikes, Motocross e.t.c - on my favourites

Sky 413

YOU PEN15! you got my hopes up (i said FREE!) Grrrrrrrrrrr

You said other than terrestrial/freeview. Motors is on satellite

EDIT: Oh wait is that what terrestrial means? :doh:

Racing Underground.

I'll trade someone a Demonoid code for a Racing Underground invitation code.

Done, thank you ddd9022!

thanks. what software do i need to play it?

I have an invitation code for RU, PM me if you want it

eh! :grumpy:

there's no way of seeing DTM in the UK other than Live on Setanta or on World Motorsport on Sky Sports.

what program do u play it with J@tko?

Quote from oli17 :

VLC Player

Will play almost anything, and even better will stay fullscreen on a second screen whilst you're doing stuff on another one

EDIT: Click play on the stream link on the page, and choose to open with vlc.exe [you may have to browse for it]

EDIT 2: You might have to right click the play button and press "open with" on IE.

aaaah! i hate VLC, i downloaded it before and it turned all my music into that format, so now i have a load of stuff the won't play on my Zen! is there any other program i could use!?!?

Right click on music file > Properties > Change (Next to "Opens with") > Select your program (Zen?)

Control Panel > Default Programs > Set Default Programs, pick Zen/WMP or something like that, "Choose Defaults for this program" and change everything back to Zen

[At least it's like that in vista]

so is there a way to stop it ripping CDs into VLC format - or is it the same as the way you just said?

I don't know where the setting for CD things is. The only thing I can say is when you insert the CD open up WMP, click the arrow under rip, "more options" and you can change stuff there.

Or you could try TVU for p2p sites. you even get Japanese MTV

Motorsport Mundial? OK, it's highlights on a long delay in the middle of the night on Channel 4, but that's all those glorified prototypes need

We have an English version

EDIT: Although the commentator on the Dutch Supercar Challenge drives me nuts. Seriously
