TVGorge: Streaming TV shows outside US

[Gundam]

Finally found something to do with all this cheap bandwidth we are getting from Afrihost:

http://tvgorge.com/

Quality is decent and streaming is smooth as silk.

Waiting for the episodes to download before watching them is so last year.

If you are using firefox, download the addon netvideohunter. That should help with downloading. I use it and it works.

Mmmmmm,,, the site looks noticeably different to a few days ago - I hope their 're-indexing' doesn't take too long. It's quite nifty, though the quality isn't great. An hour episode of TopGear is about 130mb, so 20% of the size of the torrent downloads from finalgear.com. It's watchable, but not great on a 42" screen. Although with most shows image quality is secondary, I suppose.

I tried it looks very good, even the quality . But how can you get it to show full screen?
And where is the site? because on you tube I only get buffering and bits & pieces. But here
it looks very good.

Right-click - 'Go to Fullscreen.'

Thanx, but full screen is not too good, a bit blury. But anyhow in principle it works like a charm

As happens with any small digital video image that you scale up. It is a pity however that the fullscreen mode doesn't switch to widescreen, so everything is stretched out.

Just watched both of this week's American Idol episodes on it, and it worked a charm - not even one hiccup due to buffering. Even on a 4Mb line, I VERY rarely get to see a YouTube video without any buffering issues.

Brilliant site. Lawyers must be licking their lips to take it down, hope it doesn't happen soon.

Why not just download and keep it on your PC? Sure, it takes a bit longer to find a Rapidshare or Megaupload link, but you can store the episode
