Hi Guys,
This was posted on here a couple of months back as a TV service for your laptop, but it didn’t work for the UK at the time. Now it does.
Its totally free and you get about 25 channels, download it for your PC and install, job done!
Its available for Windows, Mac and Linux (Verified working on Xubuntu and Redhat)
I’ve just tried it over Public WiFi and its absolutely sound, no buffering noticable or anything.
REALLY pleased with this, finally some proper TV when away from home!

quite funky cheers pal’s i’ll have a play tonight n see how good it is with a dongle in the middle of nowhere well lichfield 
I’m interested to know how you got on with your dongle lol.
But what’s the catch with the service?
Does it download spyware and such like?

Answering my own question, the only catch I can see on their web site is this:
“Zattoo ads appear during channel switches. Whenever a user chooses a new channel, there’s a technically induced buffering time of 5-7 seconds during which an ad is shown.”
Seems like a price worth paying to me, especially if you don’t flick around and plan your viewing.
I wonder how it works with a dongle in a lay-by.
■■■■ that sounds dodgy!
Worked a treat at home on broadband…and the best thing is its all free
No use to me, i’m in north wales, havn’t heard of the internet here, let alone broadband 
Thats the dogs bowlocks!! I had my doubts but I can get Spanish TV on it and certainly at home it seems to work on ADSL - how it will work in France or elsewhere when Im nicking bandwidth time will tell though. Well impressed!!
Zattoo is a peer-to-peer application
ermm that ones a bit dodgy
does it count as part of you download allowance when watching it. im on the 3 dongle paying £10 per month.
I’m parked up now so I thought I would try it. I’m on a 3 dongle.
It didn’t work for me, it was very jumpy like it wasn’t downloading fast enough.
Anyone alse used it on mobile?
I’ve not tried it yet but it seems too good to be true. Is it secure?
Seems secure enough, single port traffic only and no duplex!
I haven’t even looked into security to be honest as I’m not on WindoZZzzze but I don’t see any reason it should be a risk.
Yes it will count towards any limits you have, probably at about the rate of 1mb per 3 minutes if you watch one channel continuously.

I have a good signal where I am, it downloaded quickly and was easy to set up. I just couldn’t watch it because it was so jumpy
Ive got a vodafone dongle but having coverage problems - not 3G where their coverage map says it is . Any advice on t mobile or 3s reliability appreciated and whether i should ring up vodafone and cancel asap ! cheers

Yes as it is a constant download stream. I would imagine it will wear heavily on your download allowance. It states in the “help” section that it requires a 500kbps connection minimum, so assuming the stream is 500kbps that equates to about 3.7MB per minute of viewing. Not good if you only have a 1GB allowance or similar, as you’d hit 1GB after 4.5hours viewing.

Even paying £15/month for 3GB (3 network) it’d be used up quite quick.
I think the major problem is it’s peer to peer, so even when you are not watching anything your bandwidth is being used by someone else while you have the program running, unless I am mistaken.

I fail to see the point of it then 
what’s the point of ‘mobile’ tv if you can only get a worthwhile connection at home

thanks guys dont think i will bother then ,i will stick to the dvbt dongle thingy
only good if you have a broadband connection available
You could use one of these instead for your laptop WITHOUT the need for Broadband
just downloaded the link…the reception is really good, the picture is good, the quality i, and the selection are good…what more can i say…oh yeah…i`m on my tower, with a broadband…
