Internet Streaming TV on Front Row? How is this possible?

Hi,

 

I purchased a Mini Mac currently on OS X. I would like to be able to add internet streamed TV on to the Front Row. I once saw that demonstrated, but been unable to do it. The Mac staff in the shop tell me that Front Row and ITune will not do streaming TV. Further more most TVs are MS Multi media enabled and do not work on MAC OS.

 

I have managed to play the streamed TV on the MC's Quick Time software. But when I add the stream address to the ITune although it creates a new line in t he library, it will not play it. I am not able to drag-drop the saved QT file on to the Itune either.

 

An example is this address mms://streaming.newmedia.lu/telehighres

 

I get it run on QT, but no joy on ITune.

 

Any tips , tricks or hacks please?

 

Thanks
