How PPLive Works?
Basic OperationAfter a user selects a TV station from the list, which is accessed by right-clicking the PPLive icon in the Microsoft Windows system tray, the program will then connect to peers and buffer the stream. PPLive typically uses ports 8008 TCP and 4004 UDP to connect to peers. When the buffer is reasonably full, PPLive launches your media player, either RealPlayer or Windows Media Player, pointing it to read a stream from a local port (usually 8080), Closing down your Media player will not end the stream. The PPLive program will remain in the background streaming data until you close it from the tray or change the channel. CompatibilityThe PPLive program is installable on Asian and English language versions of Windows XP. By default, it uses Windows Media Player and RealPlayer. The media player that is opened depends on the type of stream.
