An update.
Although the website only shows one feed there are actually 4 !

http://www.garnierstreamingmedia.com/asx/bb1.asp
http://www.garnierstreamingmedia.com/asx/bb2.asp
http://www.garnierstreamingmedia.com/asx/bb3.asp
http://www.garnierstreamingmedia.com/asx/bb4.asp

And if you miss one of the daily or special shows (on
Thursdays), you can
watch them on demand and free at:
http://www.talpa.tv/web/show/id=47822

I've tried going to the On-Demand site but have failed to get beyond selecting the topics. Says server down or undergoing maintance.

As an extra I've found a small program that allows you to choose between the four cameras or have all four running at the same time.
Think it's in Visualbasic so you might need some of the run-time files but it works very well.
I've had 4 x448K streams running . You can also double click and any of the feeds to get a full screen image.

To find the file click on the House with the WWW next to it and scroll through the news section till you find the bit about BBNL or try going direct with http://bigbrotherfan4.tripod.com/bigbrother.zip
I tried a few different ways of creating the download link before I found the one that Tripod/Lycos allowed. They won't even allow the domain name as part of the link which I didn't think was fair.

If you get the program running you'll need a fast broadband connection to use the quad screen mode.
The version I found is V1.0.0.0 so maybe there is a later version but I think the sound could get messy as I think all four tracks are present. Now if I can workout how they have done the four streams at once I'll have a got at my own version to try and get selectable sound.

Any way have fun.

OK my version is available from the website. It's in visualbasic 6 so you'll need the basic runtime files.
Mine retains the player controls so you have access to volume and must to select the sound track.
Also you get either a single large picture or the Quad view.
Note that a quick PC is required to run the program as my old 1GHz AMD froze. So I wrote is in the AMD with Win98 compiled it everytime and then tested it with my P4 Win XP PC.

It's only a quick lash up so I'm sure there so improvements to be made so it's functional and no guarantees etc .And use at you own risk etc.

If you have any problems or ideas let me know.

Type something like "Visual Basic 6 runtime files" into Google and you should find what you need.

Now I must find out what the rest of the functions are that are available with the WMPlayer control as I've guessed my way through so far.
