Using Miro

Description

So you'd like to watch TV shows whenever you like, but you're too lazy to Tivo them yourself? Or maybe you live in a foreign country and would like to stay up-to-date on American culture? Let the magic of newsfeeds maintained by Tivo-using obsessives and the <a href="http://www.getmiro.com/">Miro Player</a> do your work for you. It works like this: <dl dt_class="field"> Get <a href="http://www.getmiro.com/">Miro</a> Download and install the Miro Player. This player can check video newsfeeds, showing what's available and letting you download a show from one or more sources. Once you've downloaded a video, you can watch it right within the player, which keeps track of where you were in each video. Once a video's on your hard drive, Miro automatically starts uploading it to other people requesting the same thing (you can stop it from doing this, though). There's a lot of free content available, but that's probably not what you're here for. Go to <a href="http://www.tvrss.net/shows/">TvRSS</a> This is a web site that hosts newsfeeds for pretty much every TV show, mini-series or limited-run series shown on TV (in the last decade or so). Search around until you find what you need, then following the handy guide in <a href="http://www.cnet.com/8301-13739_1-9775271-46.html" source="CNet">TV Torrents: When 'piracy' is easier than legal purchase</a>, which shows you just what you need to do with screenshots and everything. </dl>
