Russian television RTVi
can now be viewed by anyone on the UW-Madison campus network. It is available on the Digital Academic Television Network as an MPEG-1 stream that can be played on most computers using Quicktime. The stream may be too much for slow computers, but is available to those on the UW-Housing Resnet network and to those in Eagle Heights Apartments. Note that this will not work off-campus and may not work through a firewall.

For more details or to watch the stream of RTVi, go to: http://datn.wisc.edu/
