How is this done, Adrie? (If you know...)

Is this just an illegal link that will be difficult to find next Test Match?

its illegal alright, simple to do though. Someone just has a Video Card (Graphics Card) plugged into his or her TV and its relaying the picture, he or she then simply Streams it on the net in what ever program he or she uses.

This sort of thing will become ever more frequent as broadband speeds increase.

Hmm, could do with someone doing that from Holland or Sweden, you never know what we might be able to watch whilst we work;)

Dodgy! I wouldn't want to take on sky. Could we be prosecuted for using the link?? :ohmy:

get a camcorder and we could stream the WC Poker night round Easys LIVE to NSC :D

Barrel, doubt you could get done no, they'd be after the originator and simply stop the stream.

As its being hosted on Akamai it is definately not a home user as they provide server space for commercial business.

Its more likely something to do with Lords and someone has leaked the link.

The ECB are doing highlights on their website so it's probably someone there that has leaked it.

They'd have to have one hell of a big chunk of bandwidth to their home to support even the few NSC users :eek: :eek: :eek:
