Pretty Good!
Pros: Well ~ I was very skeptical when I first download this software. The potential for security issues are extremely high when using a software of this nature. With those concerns, I did some extensive testing on the TVUPlayer. I was shocked as to its performance and the lack of potential security issues. I tested this software with every security tool you can name without any positive results. Amazing, because I really expected to find something.
I did some major speed testing when I first downloaded this software too. Shockingly, this software, when running, hardly affects your network speeds. My network performance only spiked over 0.5% only twice that I am aware of during the duration of testing.
I ran 40 individual speed tests while the software was running: I averaged 2149.4 KBPS with a 3 MB package. Then I ran 40 individual tests without the software running: Averaged 2280.8
Considering all speed test were done during high traffic hours, the 131 KBPS I lost in my network isn't bad.
Most of the channels work well, and this is
an actual real-time T.V. broadcast too! I checked all of the American channels against my Direc T.V. service. I really expected the programming to be prerecorded, but it wasn't.
All in all, the program seems to be spyware and adware free, and safe to install!
Cons: Some of the channels freeze and don't work well!
You will not get a high quality feed, but for free T.V. without the ugly antenna on the side of your house - TVUPLayer is worth the download!
