How to Watch Free British TV From Abroad on a VLC Media Player
When you're on vacation abroad and you're dying to catch up with your favorite British comedies, VLC media player has a network stream option built into its player. Enter the network address of the streaming British programming and VLC will buffer a live stream of the selected channel. A utility (see Resources) that uses Windows Command Prompt to automatically enter each stream in VLC makes setting channels faster than manually entering them.
