I've recently picked up a Playbook after steadfastly refusing to join the tablet market, and have to say it's a lovely device.Actually prefer it to the missus' iPad which was more than double the price. Had some fun and games finding the apps I needed but sideloading seems to have solved most of my issues.
There is just one thing that I can't find a solution to, and was wondering if anyone had any ideas. I have a linux satellite box that allows me to live stream from there to a PC. Works perfectly with VLC on windows, ubuntu etc via a m3u http link, however I can't find an app to replicate running this on the Playbook. Seem to be some apps to stream files from a PC but that's not really the same.
Any thoughts would be much appeciated, especially during Euro 2012!!
Try orb. Welcome - Orb. Orb Launcher in the app world. I haven't tried the live tv option but it works me for streaming movies from my desktop hard drive to the playbook.
