Japanese Quiz TV Shows - mentat_kgs - 2009-04-13
Hey, there are tons of them on youtube already, but those are only short clips. I'd like to download some and watch them more calmly, with less interruptions.
Do you know where can I find them?

I was looking for the exact same thing yesterday, but couldn't find anything =( Would be really good if someone knows of a place to download them tough =D

Try looking on D-addicts if you have a particular show in mind, although most of them don't get uploaded very often anymore.
If you don't want to go for torrents then they only other thing I would suggest it Keyhole TV (and the like) which most of you know about anyway I think. Fuji TV often has good quiz shows at about 7~9PM JP time.

d-addicts is probably your best bet, several TV shows are uploaded regularly (that's where I get my london hearts stuff).

Maybe you'd have more luck on Share or PD?

I've been using Firephoenix in the last days and it's working pretty good. It can stream and save good quality video.
http://www.uriptv.com/index.html
After i installed it didn't work complaining that it couldnt find a file related to IT_it locale (my computer's locale is italian). A quick fix to make it start is switching the computer locale to japanese (control panel/international options) before launching Firephoenix.
A better solution but more tricky is to search for the file udtfilm_2.1.0.jar in the Firephoenix install directory, open it with Winrar, navigate to udtfilm_2.1.0.jar\com\jxt\udtfilm\client\util\i18n and create a properties file for your locale. I just made a copy of message_ja.properties renamed message_it.properties. Be sure to add this new file to the jar archive.

I had to switch my non-unicode support BACK to English, install it using an installer consisting of nothing but question marks... then I switched non-unicode back to Japanese and I still got the same problem as blurp... Seems that the program doesn't care about the non-unicode settings, it cares about the locale setting for some random reason.
The program it self seems to work fine now... unfortunately, it doesn't have Asahi TV

The installer is nothing more than a self extracting archive. You could just extract with winrar to your desired folder and it will work.
I'm not sure of what you mean with 'non unicode support', i guess the question would look a japanaese text on a japanese version of windows

non-unicode support is an option in Windows XP regional settings which decides what language should be assumed for non-unicode apps. If it isn't set to Japanese, japanese software generally doesn't work on Windows.

mmh...once I extract and try to run I get this error message:
Could not create the view: Can't find resource for bundle java.util.PropertyResourceBundle, key USER_MANAGER_STR
I've updated Java, changed non unicode locale to Japanese...

Still within winrar navigate into udtfilm_2.1.0.jar\com\jxt\udtfilm\client\util\i18n
Drag the file message_ja.properties into a temporary folder, rename it to message_en.properties and then drag the new file into winrar, overwriting the old one.
If you examine the original message_en.properties you'll see it misses all translations, hence the error.
This way it will work with english locale.

Wow, It works =D Thanks a lot!
Edit: This is *MUCH* better than keyhole! There are less channels but the quality is much better. You can even download a few hours of a channel in one click. =D

bombpersons Wrote:Wow, It works =D Thanks a lot!Agreed, I've stopped using Keyhole because the quality is horrible and it lags TONS for me if I watch it when Japanese people watch TV... early day in Sweden that is. This one however works perfectly.

Oddly enough, it tries to download 1GB files of the channels and I can't get it to stop :/ I just want to stream, not download.
EDIT: Ah, it was the X button at the bottom ^^
EDIT: Oh I see :/ The program can't ACTUALLY stream :/ If you stop the stream, remove the download and start it again, it restarts... which means, the TV isn't live (like it is in Keyhole)
Still good but that makes the software MUUUCH less awesome >_<
Japanese Quiz TV Shows - bombpersons - 2009-04-14
To me, it doesn't look like it's actually live. It's like it's just 2-3 hour recordings of the channels. Though it's quite useful as it means I can watch all the good stuff anytime I want =D
