I'm watching CNN via Xfinity Comcast.
Had to perform a Silverlight upgrade to get it to work.
When I tried to watch live at CNN I got an error.
Here's a tweet I sent out with the error "NOT PROPER AUTHENTICATION":

Xfinity saw the tweet and helped out:
@stevegarfield Try going to xfinitytv.com, scroll down to live TV and click on CNN. You may need to log in w/ your .net account.

When I tried to watch on Xfinity, I got a message telling me to upgrade my Silverlight plug-in. CNN didn't have that message.
Thanks Marc.
Note: To watch online, you've got to be a cable subscriber and authenticate with your cable company account username and password.
Is it possible to watch it if I'm not in the usa?
ReplyDeleteI don't know. You need to be a subscriber to a cable company, so I'd guess probably not.
