YouView channel streaming can only be done via BT or TalkTalk. Third parties eg VuTV, Motors TV, NowTV, cannot currently stream live channels themselves.

Long story, explained here, basically YouView boxes can only currently decode IPTV signals sent by multicast. Third party channels independent of a customer's ISP are sent by unicast which the boxes can't decode. Hopefully the boxes will be enabled in the future, the link included a response from YouView in 2012 stating that this functionality was planned for the future.
