Welcome!
Thank you for purchasing Broadway TD by PCTV Systems.
Please follow these instructions to quickly start streaming live
TV or TV recordings to virtually any PC and handheld device
in your network.
What is Broadway TD?
Broadway brings TV to your iOS or Android device (see
www.pctvsystems.com
for an up-to-date list of supported
devices). In addition you can record the TV program to a
connected USB mass storage device.
Broadway needs two things in order to operate:
1. A TV source
for live TV – can be an over-the-air TV
antenna (DVB-T / Freeview transmission) or your cable
TV or satellite set top box for pay TV.
2. A connection to a network router
in your home
.
The connection can be wireless (Wi-Fi) or
wired (Ethernet).
When you are at home, you can watch the video signal
streamed by Broadway over a Wi-Fi connection. When you
travel, you need to have an Internet connection (Wi-Fi or
3G/4G) in order to receive the video signal from Broadway.
