    Default Mundine V's McKart on PPV

    Lets see how I go getting this to work

    The fight is on Foxtel Main Event , but I dont have a foxtel sub. I do have a Roku box though , and after doing some Googling it seems that Wealth TV will be broadcasting the fight.

    I have manged to add Wealth TV to my Roku easily enough , and have signed up for a 30 day free trial (after that its 99 cents a month or 10 a year). This channel is Live TV and is HD.

    I maged to find this info on the Rokus forums from Wealth TV support :

    WealthTV appreciates the feedback on the picture quality issues. We've made some adjustments and have added a silver star rating to our 24/7 feed. The star rating is located in the lower right hand corner just below the WealthTV logo bug. The star rating will assist WealthTV and Roku in optimizing the picture quality of the 24/7 feed. Here's the code to the silver star ratings:

    One star = 800 kbps feed SD.
    Two stars = 1300 kbps feed SD.
    Three stars = 2600 kbp feed HD.
    Four stars = 3800 kbps feed HD.

    We are monitoring how fast the detection is of the available bandwidth with switching to the highest available feed. Please assist us by posting any concerns. WealthTV Tech Support.
    It is showing up as 4 stars on my screen and the quality is excellent. Now I just have to work out how to subscribe to PPV's before tomorrow

    Almost a good fight but I had to laugh at the Mayweather Senior take on the whole show.

    <snip>
    The 37-year-old Mundine is hopeful that a successful foray into the American market will open up new opportunities for his career - with the former NRL star ultimately chasing a fight with unbeaten pound-for-pound superstar Floyd Mayweather Junior.

    But those dreams appeared dashed before he even took to the ring, with Mayweather Senior saying ringside that Mundine's chances of facing his son 'are probably slim to none'.
    <snip>
    In hindsight I should have posted my Facebook status as: "I've blown the head gasket on my 1997 XR3i" rather than "I've just buggered a 14 year old escort".
    The police still haven't seen the funny side, my lap top's been confiscated and the wife has gone off to her mum's.

    I didn't have any luck with Wealth TV but I had a good stream from oleoletv that was free. Once you navigate through the pop up adds it's fine anyway.

    Neither did I.
    When I signed up I signed up for WealthTV though, not the PPV option on the far right which was more expensive.
    How did you go Sanity?

    No go , I cant work out how you access their PPV system.

    This is the jpeg from the website mainpage




    I did come across this though

    If you have a read of the boxing links , a few different things are suggested. One has a statement from the CEO saying they will show boxing for free on the channel, but if its a big purse fight it will be PPV. Another link suggests that it would be on the 3D channel ?

    I ended having to go out unexpectedly so would have missed it anyway, but it would be good to get it worked out as it suggests Wealth Tv is going to be doing a lot of major boxing broadcasting. And if its anything like their standard channel on the Roku, its a lovely quality picture and makes Foxtels Main Event quality look very poor.

    I might shoot them an email and try and get some info.
