MiraxTV

MiraxTV is an application created to offer you a simple and efficient means of watching online TV. It provides a list of TV stations that you can tune in to and watch from your installed web browser.

MiraxTV displays a simple and user-friendly interface which anyone can find appealing and easy to make out. Its main window contains a list of station categories which you can access with a simple click and you get to choose from ‘News’, ‘Movies’, ‘Shows’, ‘Kids’, ‘Music’ and ‘Educational’ sources.

Clicking any of the categories opens up a list of stations that you can access. Each one comes with a thumbnail that is characteristic to the type of content and of course, the name of the station.

Channel browsing can be done with your mouse and two buttons that you can use to go up or down a list. A thing that is a bit of a bother is the fact that when you reach the bottom of a list and press the ‘down’ arrow once more, you’re brought back to the main menu which contains the categories.

When you click on a station you want to watch, MiraxTV automatically opens your web browser and guides you to the website that hosts that channel. The application does not offer a built-in player so the size of the screen in which you can watch the stream differs from one website to another and so does the quality.

Moreover, with MiraxTV you have no way of knowing if a channel is working or not and you can find yourself waiting a good couple of minutes for something that is not available.

All-in-all, MiraxTV has a good idea at its core and it works just fine as long as the stations are up, but it does need a bigger database as the current number of stations is rather small.
