[thelist] cable internet and web TV

[G@rry]

I have been thinking about this too of late as my bro has just had the NTL
service installed.  I'm over there later this week and have put up a
detector to find out what I can, it's at
http://www.stratford-london.co.uk/garrywa/linx/detect.html , if anyone can
give me any other bits of code I can use for detection I would be most
greatful (or point out any mistakes in my code :-) )  and I'll let anyone
who is interested have the results.  I think this is going to become quite a
large audience and it would be useful to know what it's capable of.

As for WebTV, there is a developers forum and info site at
http://developer.webtv.net/ and it claims to support flash !

Interestingly, I have the WebTV viewer,
http://developer.webtv.net/design/tools/viewer/ , on my WinBox and it has an
option for NTSC or PAL (PAL is higher definition and so has a larger display
area), although it regularly lock up in PAL.
