I have loaded all the software that I have been instructed to but I still am having trouble getting live sports. I downloaded sopcast, then went to the p2p site and downloaded the software recomended to speed up buffering and loading. I cant see that I have missed anything but when I go to start a channel I wait and wait, the buffering % goes up but never reaches 100% and no picture. I did get it to work once last week but now not at all. My connection is running at aprox. 450kps. Can anyone tell me what I may have missed, I am new at this so maybe a list or something, Would really like to get this working before this weekends NFL playoffs. Thanks! CJ

YOu already tried VLC with Sopcast --> http://www.myp2p.eu/faqitem.php?faqgroupid=9&part=home --> My Screen stays on black?
Yes you can indeed have this problem. Some channels only use VLC codecs. A
fast guide can be find here: http://85.92.128.155/~myp2p/forum/viewtopic.php?id=22114

Or
you can Download VLC first, see http://myp2p.eu/softwareitem.php?softwareid=12&part=software . Install it and start
VLC. To open a Sopcast channel yet in VLC: Open file --> network stream --> select http --> 127.0.0.1:8902 (the end can change to 8912 or 8903) and don't forget to press ok.. Now it will work, so if you've got this Black screen error just open it in VLC.
