MobiTV PPC (from Free App Friday) WORKING!!!

[jmorisey]

I got the MobieTV PPC version that was given away on friday from Handango to work on the Q.

I am not a programmer, so if I went the LONG way around, spare me the insults.

What I did was usd a PPC emulator on my PC to install mobiTV. I then copied the install directory to my Q. Launched the .EXE and used sphelper.exe to get around....

I hope for those of you who downloaded this, that this will help...

no insults... didn't see anybody else posting they made it work so your method was a good one.

(did not test it myself, but i believe you..)

Do you still have to pay the subscription after a week though? I read you have to pay ten bucks a month after a certain amount of time

I never read the fine print, stupid me, lol... thanks for making me aware of this. I will have to check and find out what exactly was included with the FREE APP FRIDAY. I just emailed Handango, so we will see...

Thanks again,
Jon

After I posted, I found that... I edited my post, but you are just to quick for me. I emailed Handango, so I will see what they have to say. When I went to MY ACCOUNT at Handang and checked my SUBSCRIPTION services, MobiTV was there and said that it would renew on 12/2/2007.

I will cancel before I have to pay, I don't watch TV on my Q, I just d/l it because it was free and I wanted to try to get it to work on my Q.

Thanks,
Jon
