Obviously you will need a Nintendo Wii console for this article. You will also need the Wii Internet Channel (web browser) installed on your Wii console, and you will need the console to be connected to a wireless network (with a proper wifi router, not just an access point). This guide also uses TVersity Media Server but it does not cover fully installing or configuring it, however it still should work just fine if you just follow these instructions. Install all of the software.
What does this article do?
You are most likely familiar with what exactly TVUPlayer is already, but in case you arent, it is a P2P-based TV sharing application. Television channels are shared by a source and spread using P2P technology among viewers, so like P2P networks, when you are downloading and viewing you are also uploading simultaneously to others. The quality can range from very poor to excellent depending on the feed that you get. There are many websites setup where people share channels with TVUPlayer and the quality is rated by viewers.
Run the TVUPlayer installer. It is very straight-forward. Once it is done, run the application and login anonymously. Double-click any channel to play it or find a channel on a TV sharing site like myp2p.eu. Once you have done that, we are already finished with the TVUPlayer part. On the next page we will setup VLC Media Player to create a feed for TVersity, which will then feed it directly to the Nintendo Wii over your wireless network.
What Next?
