Only one working at present but if you use this URL

http://geo.channel4.com/player/v2/asx/s ... ow:285:356

You can use WMP to watch rather than the embedded player on the site.

If it doesn't work load the embedded player then right-click the picture once the video is streaming and select properties. Just Copy the url then past it into WMP OpenUrl.

It also says that it's encoded for WMP 9 not 10 as Channel 4 claim hence why it can be played under Win98.

Channel 4 don't seem to want to please the viewer anymore, everyone liked the multi screens on e4 except the fat cats dreaming up more ways to fleece viewers out of there cash. I've been one of those I'm sorry to say :-( They need to sort out that website before I'll part with any this time.

I think the main reason for not giving multiple streams is control.
With just one stream ,especially with so many in the house ,they have total control on how we see the HM. The more you are allowed to see the more you form your own opinions on the HM. With just one stream they switch between everybody so quickly that you don't see anything but what they want you to see.
The sound cuts mean you need to be able to lipread .
Even when you had two streams they still change things from time to time but at least you can follow someone. Say they are talking to someone out side and go into the house you can see what they might say to some one in they house and you can see what the other person of group say when the first person isn't there.

One of the best for multiple cameras is always BB Norway Sweden with at least 6 to choose from. Years when the divide the two countries HM you get twice as many to play with until the divide comes down.

One obsevation is that if you leave the stream running you don't have to keep logging in. But if you do go to the website you are still asked to log in even when you have the stream running in WMP.
Mine has just ran for 71 hours until I clicked a link to a NTL stream. Which I must say is the most stable BB stream I've used from a Uk show.
