There are channels which do not broadcast 24/7 or there are too many connections to the channels stream, therefore sometimes you may think the link is broken. Try again several times at different hours in different days before reporting that channel link as a broken link.

We are not the owners of the sites which provide the media content so we cannot control the quality of the various streams we gathered in ChrisTV's Online channels database. What we can assure is that we try to put in ChrisTV Online's channels database are links to the highest quality broadcasted streams of those TV/radio online stations.
To benefit of the highest quality you also need to have a download bandwith bigger than 512 kbps.
The reason for such differences in quality may be due to content provider quality broadcasted and is not because of ChrisTV Online! software.
