- How to watch torrent channels on your smart TV?
This method works simply. Using special programs called “torrent clients” and working using P2P (“peer-to-peer”) technology, you search for files of interest on the computers of other users who have this client file.
These files are then pieced together in your machine, and that's it - the movie or software is downloaded! Moreover, the more computers that have the requested file, the higher the download speed.
Torrrent technologies (the correct name is “BitTorrent”) are very popular and are actively developing. Not so long ago, their use became available for everyone’s favorite multifunctional “smart” TVs, i.e. smart tv.
Each of you can now easily “teach” your TV to broadcast channels not only in the familiar IPTV mode, but also using BitTorrent. To do this, just install a special player for torrent TV on it.
The main difference between using this technology on a computer and on a modern TV is that torrent TV for smart TV (or Ace Stream) does not provide file downloading, but high-speed streaming of TV channels online.
Accordingly, the more viewers watch a particular channel, the higher the data transmission speed and reliability of its delivery. At the same time, you yourself become a source of data transmission for other TV viewers.
Advantages of torrent TV on TV
Torrent TV has many advantages, and if you are a fan of high-quality pictures and a variety of channels, then you will never go wrong by installing a torrent TV player on your TV.
At the same time you will receive the following benefits:
- The data transfer speed will ensure stable broadcasting “without brakes”. Agree, now not every provider can broadcast a lot of channels in “high digital”, and for torrent TV, providing an HD picture online is not a problem! Fans of sports channels will especially like the capabilities of torrent TV. The service is not afraid of overloads and works even better during iconic sporting events, when the number of spectators increases sharply!
- Why are traditional torrents so popular? It's not just about speed, they're also practically free! Thanks to the use of torrent TV, you can watch all the variety of channels (and their number is in the hundreds) without buying expensive packages, so beloved by satellite TV providers. For example, on the popular resource torrent tv. ru you can watch a lot of channels for a nominal fee of 150 rubles, which is charged for allocating an access point to the Internet channel (TS-proxy). There you can also download special plugins necessary to watch torrent TV on Samsung Smart TV or Philips Smart TV.
- The resources of this type of television are truly limitless and even wider than those of the famous Megogo! In addition to TV channels in the “torrent tv hd online” mode, you will have access to archived versions of all programs, a wide variety of films, cartoons, programs and much more.
- A distinctive quality of torrent TV is its cross-platform nature. Using a server-based TS-proxy, you can watch it not only on Smart TVs, but also on media boxes and set-top boxes.
All this suggests that today for smart TVs (and no less smart their owners) there is no better alternative than torrent TV, and modern Ace Stream technologies are new horizons for digital television.
