Currently there are 54 DV channels available through VF1 online and new channels being added as they become available. It's like having a small screen television right on your desktop. The VF1 is a widget that at its current version, allows you to change channels and turn the VF1 to its 'Off' state. To turn it to its 'On' state, simple open the side menu panel, scroll to locate a selection, click the channel, then sit back and watch. This new version includes full screen on all RealPlayer channels only. To activate the Widget Television in FullScreen mode, simply choose one of the RealPlayer channels from the channel list, and after the station completely loads click on the television screen to activate it. Future updates will include FullScreen mode for the other two video players as well. The channel list now includes icon links to the left of the channel name and will link to the channel's website where (most of the websites have this option) a program schedule is available. The VF1 uses all three major streaming video players; QuickTime, RealPlayer, and Media Player.

All new virtual programming
Added new U.S.A. channels + several international channels
New TV skin with controls
