                            AMENDMENT NO. 2

     This Amendment No. 2 to the Statement on Schedule 13D is being filed
pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This Amendment No. 2 amends
and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D, as subsequently amended
(the "Schedule 13D"), relating to the common stock, par value $0.10 per
share ("Common Stock"), of ACTV, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Issuer"), previously filed by Global Capital Management, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Global").  Capitalized terms used and not defined
herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.  Except as
amended herein, the Schedule 13D previously filed remains unchanged.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     Item 5(a) is hereby amended by adding the following:

     (a)  Without giving effect to the limitation described in Item 5(a)
          of the Schedule 13D:

          (1)  As of July 30, 1997, Global was the beneficial owner of
               1,196,365 shares of Common Stock (by reason of the
               Investors' right to exchange their Preferred Stock for
               that number of shares).  Based upon the Issuer's Form 10-Q
               for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Issuer had
               11,838,734 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May
               13, 1997.  Treating as also outstanding the 1,196,365
               shares of Common Stock for which the Investors' Preferred
               Stock was exchangeable, Global would be deemed as of July
               30, 1997 to have been the beneficial owner of 9.2% of the
               Issuer's outstanding Common Stock.

          (2)  As of the date hereof, Global is the beneficial owner of
               996,028 shares of Common Stock (by reason of the
               Investors' i) right to exchange their Preferred Stock for
               995,990 shares of Common Stock and ii) holdings of 38 shares
               of Common Stock).  Based upon the Issuer's Form 10-Q for the
               quarter ended September 30, 1997, the Issuer had
               14,434,612 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of
               November 13, 1997.  Treating as also outstanding the
               996,028 shares of Common Stock for which the Investors'
               Preferred Stock is exchangeable, Global would be deemed as
               of the date hereof to be the beneficial owner of 6.4% of
               the Issuer's outstanding Common Stock.

     Item 5(c) is hereby amended to read as follows:

     (c)  No transactions in Common Stock were effected by the Investors
          during the sixty (60) days prior to July 30, 1997 or the date
          hereof.
