How
to watch French TV on your computer with Orange adsl As an English language speaker living in France you may prefer to watch UK TV via satellite. Like me, you may not even have the facility to receive French TV channels. However, being able to watch a French TV programme and listen to the French language is a great language learning tool. It's amazing how many people who have an Orange adsl (broadband) account are not aware that they can watch French TV on their computer via the Orange website. If you'd like to give it a try here's how to do it: First of all a checklist of system requirements. 1/ You must have an Orange France adsl internet account. 2/ If your operating system is below you should be able to access Orange internet TV. Microsoft Windows 7 3/ If you use Firefox as your browser you should have VLC player intalled on your system, if you don't then you can download it here for free. Important Update ... Ensure that 'Install Mozilla plugin' is checked during VLC player installation. 4/ If you use Internet Explorer as your browser you should have Windows media player 11 (or higher) installed on your system, if you don't you can download it here for free. OK ... so you checked your operating system and it is compatible. You have VLC player or Windows media player installed. You logged into your account on the Orange website at http://www.orange.fr with your primary Orange/Wanadoo email address and password and you ticked the box to remember you next time you visit the Orange website. Great ... all you need to do now is go to the Orange Video Party page - click here and enjoy several French TV channels (takes a few seconds to load). This works for me in Firefox and Internet Explorer. If
you have any difficulty with the above please email via the contact
page and I Update August 2011 ... On accessing the Video Party page you may be asked to download a plugin in order to watch the TV channels. This is only 4.5mb and installs automatically. Update February 2011 ... With newer versions of Mozilla Firefox and Flash Player I have found that the full screen option doesn't always work - Internet Explorer 6+ works fine though. If the information on this page (or any of our pages) has helped you please consider dropping us a line. We value your feedback. Thanks in advance. Contact us HERE. Debbie Below is a list of channels available to watch on your PC via the Orange website. Please note that a few are pay channels and will not be available for free. * 1 - France 2 (TNT). |
