Install Sopcast on Ubuntu 11.04 and 10.10

Sudo add-apt-repository ppa: ferramrobert to/sopcast

Sudo apt-get update

Sudo apt-get install sopcast-player

Associate the player with sop: // address,

Gconftool-2-t string-s/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/sop/command "/usr/bin/sopcast-player % s"

Gconftool-2-set-type = bool/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/sop/enabled true

Gconftool-2-set-type = bool/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/sop/need-terminal false

Tip: the "full screen" output by the control button is not very good. You can enter "vlc" (no quotation marks) in the command through "preference-player-use external player ).

PS, there are also many FreeTuxTV TV players, and GMlive. Now we will introduce FreeTuxTV player and how to install it:

Introduction: it is a free open-source network TV software that allows you to watch TV channels and radio stations from around the world, including some Chinese channels. You can also record the video.

Installation:

Sudo apt-add-repository ppa: freetuxtv/freetuxtv

For example, if you want to watch a movie, you can also use PPS. I often use it to watch a movie, which is good.
