You may need a few extra pieces of FREE software for these stations to work.
The software you will need is as follows:
Windows media player - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/players.aspx Some of the
streams need the latest version of media player so if you have any problems try updating to the latest
version.
Realone player is the next piece of software you may need : http://www.real.com/index.html?
src=downloadr The is a free version of the software is fine.
Please remember all streams and links do go up and down from time to time just like any other link on
the internet. If you find that one of the links is not working come back and try it again later. To watch
any of these links just copy and paste the link into your web browser and it should start-up the program
needed - Within a few minutes you should be watching the TV channel. If it is a link site just click on
the link for the channel you want to watch.

Hi Phil
Try this http://www.tvchannelsfree.com/channels/27/China. I use it to keep up with what is happening up there as my business is Beijing based.
