QPlayer
QPlayer (or QV Player) is a specially-written application designed to work with the InternetVue
receiver. QPlayer becomes the default media player for locally stored media files of nearly all types,
formats, and CODECs. Notice how the icons of media files change to the QPlayer icon only when
the PC2TV software is running (see above). However, there are still some file types that are not (yet)
compatible with QPlayer. Because QPlayer is media player for media files, it is not usable for
streaming content such as websites showing flash movies. In that case, it is recommended to
download the file(s), then play it using QPlayer. See the Tips and Tricks section for more
information.
During the initial PC2TV software setup from the CD, the setup program will prompt you if you would
like QPlayer to be installed, as well as two additional CODEC bundles, FFDshow and
RealAlternative. These are necessary in order to playback a wide variety of media files with QPlayer,
so please accept the GPL license agreement as stated.
All the default settings are recommended, and just keep on clicking NEXT until the installation
completes. Even when PC2TV is not running, your PC will still be able to playback all the media files
supported by FFDshow and RealAlternative, although possibly using other default media player(s).
If you wish to uninstall QPlayer or either of its CODEC bundles, navigate to the PC2TV group in your
Programs menu from the START button. There, select which component to uninstall:
