Live TV channels, full of the TV shows, movies and internet videos.
If you're looking for an online TV experience that mimics a cable box or satellite service, then PlutoTV is definitely worth check out.
PlutoTV combines a number of online television shows, YouTube videos and videos from other sources into a neat application layout with a GUI that's both clean and intuitive.
The application sorts a number of different program categories for easy searching, even if you're just looking to play something for an hour of relaxing. Some of the categories include Music, Sports, Comedy, Education, Entertainment and Lifestyle. Each category also includes different, numbered sub-categories.
Wrapped inside its interface, PlutoTV can also browse different show schedules and schedule them for recording in its PVR-like feature called "Save Show".
Even though most of the shows that you can catch on PlutoTV are actually available on different sites like YouTube and Dailymotion, the interface provides an alternative way to watch them.
As usual for video players of any kind, PlutoTV includes your play, stop and pause functions.
All in all, PlutoTV is a very nice-looking video player that allows you to catch up on online shows and browse a number of different categories for discovering something new.
