Watch live terrestrial UK TV and catch-up TV on XBMC

As well as watching your film and listening to your music collection, XBMC's add-ons are a great way of being able to access content on the web including access to UK Freeview live TV and radio streams and catch-up TV including the BBC, ITV and Channel 4.


The process is straightforward enough, with plenty of guides on the internet, but here is one which I found really clear and easy to follow (thanks to Jamestonbradley).

Once you've added the relevant add-ons, you should be able to view UK TV (BBC content is intended to be viewed in the UK only, so if your IP address is non-UK, you may not be able to view BBC streams).

This should also give you enough practice with video add-ons to be able to search through the hundreds of other add-ons available to see if there is anything else that is of interest to you e.g. MTV music videos, IMDB movie trailers, various kids TV channels, classic movies, extreme sports, cooking, the list goes on... have a look here to see a list of some of the video add-ons available.
