Not live, I've only messed around with stuff like ABC's iView. Can't see why they wouldn't work though, if such an app exists.
Might have to go to the TV station website to stream through Flash player. -------------------- "TheFrunj doesn't guess, when he forms words with his lips, the world will Warp and change to do his bidding." - Shikimaru

I've tried Elgato Tivizen on iPad and it's quite a nifty little device. Its basically a portable receiver that emits programming wirelessly to any device within range. Theres a free app download for ipad, so theres sure to be one for your device as well. Not sure if that's what you're after though..... you'll need to purchase the receiver, which is around the $150 mark (I believe).
I don't own one, so I can't say what it's track record is like, but for the time I was connected to it ... worked really well. -------------------- Every once in a while, declare peace. It confuses the hell out of your enemies.

If the tablet supports Flash, most Aussie TV stations do have their shows online in some form. Of course, iPads don't support Flash.

Samsung Galaxy 10.1
Android 3.2 I am sure there would be something, like an app or a site. To watch live tv. |

Man I'd say you're outta luck if you're just after an application. AFAIK no FTA channels livestream their broadcasts; and there's no TV tuner for that tablet either.
An alternative approach: a quick search turns up heaps of remote desktop apps for Android - find one that works well for audio and video. Then just get a TV tuner for your PC! :--] Do your research, <$60 solution. -------------------- "Be Excellent to each other." - Bill and Ted

We just got a release for the Hauppage Broadway that will stream from an Aerial over Wifi to an iPad using the app, and to any android device using Flash.
