There are sites out there that allow one to watch tv shows, movies, etc. on your computer. These are not things like Netflix, HBO GO, etc. They are more in line with the stream sites that people use to watch pay-per events. I don't want to post a link because I think it is bannable.

What is the best way to watch these sort of sites on your main tv? Just plug your computer into the tv? These sites have never worked for me on any iphone I have ever had. I'm assuming it's due to the sites using flash?

This is what I do. My computer and tv are right next to each other though.

Get a firetv and install KODI on it

You can get addons that search all of these stream sources

It is absolutely awesome if you are cord cutting and aren't worried about being completely lefitimate

Don't use Flash. More and more major security vulnerabilities are being discovered every day.

Firefox blocks Flash, and Facebook calls for its death

The good news for Firefox users is that most won't notice a change. Just under 11% of websites use Flash, according to W3Techs, a technology survey company.

It doesn't matter that's it's only 11% if it's an important 11%. I tried to watch some clips on NBA.com this morning and ran into the Flash block.

Uh, 11% is a LOT. It's kind of silly to say that "most won't notice a change" when 1 in 9 sites will be missing something. It would be more accurate to say "everyone who browses for more than 5 minutes WILL notice a change".
