Today, virtually all DTT television channels broadcast over the Internet live from their web pages, however, these usually do not work very well in most cases, that is, if they do not ask us to install Silverlight or, worse Still, Adobe Flash Player. However, using a list of channels and a player like Ace Stream it is possible to watch any DTT channel through the Internet comfortably as we are going to show you next.
