Is it possible to watch the NCAA tourney on my phone

[Vote4Pedro]

My team (Kansas) is playing tomorrow and I'll be at work. My only hope is watching it on cbs on my phone. The site is mmod.ncaa.com. But when I try to launch the player, it says Windows Media Cannot perporm the requested action at this time. Is there a patch or app or anything that will let me stream it to my phone?

Thanks

yes you will need to use a browser with flash like the newest verison of opera or skyfire...... or you could try to use TCPMP or Core player and that should allow it to play through that

which version of opera should i download? i'm on there now and under v 9.5 beta, for known issues it says activex is disabled - flash plugins and streaming video will not work.

mmmm than i would try to go with skyfire and see what that does for you...... remember opera is still beta for flash so you may have some troubles.

you would have to rotate the screen using the g-sensor or an app that will allow you to change to landscape using the g-sensor..... theres a coupe here to choose from.

Id say try the change screen alternative app, or Gyrator... those should get the job done for yah!

CBS is using Silverlight to stream the NCAA. Opera isn't going to work. But as you already know Skyfire will. +1 for Skyfire!

As far as rotating the screen, I have had luck in the past by going to START/Settings/Personal/Buttons/ and then mapped a button to rotate my screen.. On my 6800 I remapped the voice command button, on my Omnia, since I can't stand the auto rotate g-sensor, I mapped the Main Menu Hold button. Hope this will help you! I watched the Wisconsin/Xavier game on my Omnia while I was waiting to get my hair cut. Pretty neat.

Go Green!
