If you have a Wii and have online connectivity you can watch the feeds on your Wii connected TV. We have ours on our big screen TV so I should be able to watch the feeds on there. That should make for some interesting TV viewing. I can get DH to see stuff that he wouldn't normally get to see from BB also.

Oh great .. I had just about had myself convinced that I wasn't going to turn on the live feeds this year .. and now this! Looks like this summer I won't be getting my life back either! ... Maybe I can get DS to hide the Wii...

Wow that would be nice. I'm with Maris - can we get an explanation of how it would work?

Hmmmmm. Let's see.
$2,000 for new laptop because Clio seduced me into Second Life Game.
$29.99 for Superpass.
And Now $$$ for new Wii or Playstation
Hubby's face if he ever sees credit card - PRICELESS!!!!

I don't see how it would work on the Wii-- YouTube clips would work, but the feeds need RealPlayer, which isn't supported.

The Wii will make a nice addition to quick feed update checks here, though. ;)

Has this been officially stated somewhere, or is it just a guess? I just set up a wireless router yesterday for my Wii, so I hope it's true.

I don't think it's possible at all and I wonder why the original poster would claim that it was. Does Real have a Wii client? None that I've heard of. Wii has a web browser but I doubt it supports realplayer.

We have ours on our big screen TV so I should be able to watch the feeds on there.

originally Alliet seems to be theorizing that she might be able to get Live Feeds on there. I dont think that its actually been tried out yet.

Realplayer can be accessed for other things other than Live feeds. maybe someone with a PS or Wii can try and watch something on Real and see if it comes up!

That would be exciting!

I went to the Real help boards over at at the official Real site, and no one is talking about Wii, then I went and typed in "Wii" to all of their knowledge base categories and "0 results" shows up for every search.

I don't have either system but this is what i found in a google search. Neither system supports Real Player. Someone also mentions something in the comments at the bottom.

It was stated as a fact, not a theory. Strangely enough she never came back to reply to this thread. =)

My Internet has been down today so I am sorry, Flagg, that I was unable to come back to respond earlier. I also have 3 children who are home with me and I can't be online 24/7. Anyway, I was thinking that, since we can get our emails through the Wii, get to go on all the websites we have tried to see on the Wii, watched YouTube on the Wii and can check news and just abut anything on the Wii, we would be able to watch the feeds on the Wii. If I am wrong then I apologize for getting everyone's hopes up. I had already told our eldest that I was going to use the Wii to have the feeds on in the Family Room all summer to torment them! LOL

Sorry, I was just wondering if you had actually heard definite info that it was going to work. Looks like it won't. Oh well.

So if we swing our hand out with the Wii, can we actually smack one of them up side the head?

Oh now that would be so much fun!! I can't tell you how many times I have wanted to slap one of the HGs!!!

Mameblanche, the WII, is Nintendo's latest video gaming console. It is so much fun playing with the numchucks and the wand, very interactive, feels like you are in the game, well at least that is how I feel about it!! :-)

I went to real.com last night - using my Wii - because I *had* to know if this was possible. I was able to bring up Real and also to get to the SuperPass site. Since the feeds aren't up yet, I couldn't check that out. So ... while I can get to Real and look around ~ playing the feeds is still the great unknown.

Has anyone tried using Dan's keyhole site to view with Wii?

Just a thought. . .
