Talking Aruba on My TV on Demand
We have Direct TV.

Through "TV Apps" (right arrow on the remote) there is an application for web cams.

We now have the Bucuti Cam on our TV to view when ever we wish.

Next best thing to being there.

Sounds like the perfect excuse for us to get Direct TV!

There are a bunch of Aruba shows on demand on my Verizon Fios TV service. I have not yet watched any of them. The webcam sounds like more fun!

DIREC TV "TV Apps"
I also have Direct TV but have been unable to find the application for web cams. I can't find anything in the menu that shows "TV Apps". Maybe you can tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks.

On your remote, just press the right arrow button and then follow the menu from there. It takes a minute or two to download and of course your TV must have an internet connection. If you need more specifics, just let me know.

Thank you for your answer. I am not connected to internet yet. Have to buy a router to connect to my broadband modem.

Once you get your connection you will love the on demand programming as well. Just to name a few, we download some of our favorite shows from HistoryHD and Food Network on demand so we don't have to fast forward through the commericals.

We use Netlix, but if we didn't, I can see how the movies on demand would be pretty neat as well.

Commercial free really way to go. Will have to get router soon, just not sure which one. Called Direct TV and was told after I purchased one they would connect it but didn't know what one I should buy.
