Got a newsletter from MTN this morning, and since Ive always beeen envious of vodacom subscribers having access to dstvmobile streaming, i was kinda pleased to see the following:

TV on the go with MTN Play and DStv Mobile
The 2011 Rugby World Cup is here, so to make sure you don’t miss out on all the action, we’ve partnered with DStv to bring you live TV right to your phone! Catch all the rugby action on SuperSport live. You can also watch other DStv channels such as Channel O and Cartoon Network. To get this service, SMS DSTV1 to 083 123 686 for a weekly subscription at R15 per week or DSTV2 for a monthly subscription at R40 per month. Service is available from 15 September 2011


Now, I get that because its only available from 15 September, there would be limited info on it. But, there's actualy no info at all .... well at least none that I can find. Been onto mtnplay.co.za, mtn.co.za, mtnsp.co.za, dstvmobile.com, no info anywhere ... :wtf:

I dont wanna subscribe if the data isnt zero-rated, and also if they wont be showing all the rugby world cup games live (tv guide on dstvmobile is utterly useless!!!!). Anyone have any clues as to the answers to my q's?
 
MTN DSTV streaming

Hey (= I was on the phone to DSTV mobile, and they said they would be broadcasting all the games live..

I would also love more info on it, IE whether you have to utilize your 3g connection or if you can watch it over WiFi...coz i would agree with you it would be a waste :sick: if they charged you for your data! Better then to pay the R599 once off and buy the Mobile DVB-H device to eliminate that cost.

I'm holding thumbs you can use whatever internet connection you choose...then over wifi (through ADSL at home or work) would do the trick (-;

MORE INFO PLEASE DSTV :confused:
 
Few screen shots. Actually pretty decent. This is from my HTC Flyer.

There's no FUP as well. Well done MTN.
Now please add the crime channel and the discoveries!
 
What should I do this to play live in my phone

Enough with the thread necromancy...

I don't think this is available any more, was a gimmick that didn't pan out. I still attended the pitch that Sagem made to us while they were trialing their DVB-H device, still gave us a couple to test out, with that horrendous aerial...
