I tried this but can't get it to work on my laptop at all. Someone suggested a different media player as I just kept getting error messages with Windows Media Player. So I tried VCL media player. At least I got no errors on that, it was just unwatchable as it was so pixelated and there was no sound. Sometimes when things are pixelated you can work out shapes, but I couldn't even do that. And it wasn't anything to do with the internet connection as this was something I actually downloaded to watch later - I wasn't streaming it. When you go on the help section of their website it just comes up with a 'this domain is for sale you can buy this domain if you want to' message.
Interestingly enough it works perfectly streaming on my tablet. However I want this on my laptop so I can see the bigger screen.
In summary, I would not recommend BlinkBox to a friend.
