I have not got Setanta yet and am thinking of buying it for this month only. I go on it now and it says 'No Signal', shouldn't it come up with the channel preview?

And if I buy it, will there be signal?

Is that a new dating agency for teenagers keen to 'pop their cherry'? :? :wink: :lol:

On a serious note, as I don't have Setanta, tonight will be my first attempt at watching a game on the web. I got my nephew to set Sopcast up on my desktop for me but I don't know if that's all there is to it. Hopefully, all I will need to do is click on to their icon and away I go.

To regular Sopcast users: is there anything I should be aware of using this system? Is it kosher or should I use something else? And do they show the action in real-time or with a long delay? :? :wink: :lol:

ECD,

Go to the website "asiaplatetv.net". On the left hand side click on the "soccer" link and this will take you to the list of games being shown. We are about halfway down that list. Click on the Sopcast link and follow the instructions. They will give you a couple of "channels" to chose from.

Try to log on 15-20 mins before kick off because the it has to buffer before you get a steady picture.

Hope your PC is up to it.
