Wanna watch some TV?

The software download is about 10Mb; apparently Sothis doesn't quite have enough video memory to make it perfectly happy, but it works.

Channels of particular interest:

• Entertainment
  • Alliance Atlantis Sci-Fi
    Currently running Lexx and something I hadn't heard of, Starhunter
  • AXN
    OMG, Starsky & Hutch!
  • ShortsTV
    Short films and behind-the-scenes (paging Mike Jittlov....)
• Cartoons & Animation
  • Aardman Animations
    An all-claymation channel, woohoo!
  • Adult Swim
    Yeah, it's mostly Aqua Teens Hunger Force, but they might put on something different eventually.
  • Transformers
    Yes, Blade, it's a channel for you.
  • Gong
    Anime channel showing stuff I've never heard of so far. :)
• Comedy
  • Spike
    no content yet? Maybe 'add channel'....
  • Funny Bone
    sitcom 'reruns'
  • Heavy Animation
    Snarky cartoons that Adult Swim didn't buy (yet?)
• Most Popular
  (although I'm not sure why I didn't see two of these sorted into the Genre sections)
  • Nickleodeon
    Ren and Stimpy
  • Comedy Central

Yeah, that should get you started. I didn't see the Warner stuff loaded yet, so something to look forward to. This is play-on-demand, so no schedules to bother with!

Now... if they'd only start a Cannell Channel... hmmmm. [looks for newsletter with contact info]

Bzuh? It's playing fine for me, d'ya think they finally kicked Miami out for being too Latino? Did you add the channel or are you getting an actual error message?

Really? Maybe they've unlocked it.

When I first got Joost (a week or so ago), it said that Alliance Atlantis wasn't available in my country. I'll have to try it again.

Thanks for the new info!

Their blog says they had to kick some of their servers in the tuchus because of unexpected load, so maybe it was one of those glitches...?

[cscottd.livejournal.com]

Maybe, but I just assumed it wasn't, since they're web site listed Alliance Atlantis as "Available: Worldwide, Excluding United States and Canada". The odd thing is that the site still lists it that way (What's On | Alliance Atlantis).

How strange!
