                            LIBERTY MEDIA CORPORATION

                        Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the
                         Securities Exchange Act of 1934

                                  in respect of

                                   ACTV, Inc.
                         (Commission File No. 001-10377)

ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER

         Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Reporting
Person") hereby amends its Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Statement") with
respect to shares (the "Shares") of the Common Stock, par value $.10 per share
(the "Common Stock"), of ACTV, Inc. (the "Issuer") beneficially owned by the
Reporting Person. The Issuer's principal executive offices are located at 1270
Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020.

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

         In addition to the 2,500,000 Shares of Common Stock held by Reporting
Person and previously disclosed in the Statement, the Reporting Person used
working capital on June 30, 1999: (i) to purchase 2,500,000 Shares of Common
Stock pursuant to a previously existing warrant (the "September Warrant") held
by Reporting Person for a total exercise price of $5,000,000; and (ii) to
purchase 500,000 Shares of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 7,500,000
Shares (the "New Warrant") for a combined purchase price of $4,000,000. The New
Warrant is divided into three tranches, each for 2,500,000 Shares of Common
Stock. The first tranche has an exercise price of $8.00 per Share and is
exercisable until March 29, 2000. The second tranche has an exercise price of
$13.00 per Share and is exercisable until March 29, 2001. The third tranche has
an exercise price of $15.00 per Share and is exercisable until March 29, 2004.

         (a)      The Reporting Person presently beneficially owns 13,000,000
                  Shares of Common Stock which represent approximately 28.85% of
                  the 45,063,269 Shares of Common Stock outstanding as of June
                  30, 1999 after giving effect to the issuance of 7,500,000
                  Shares of Common Stock issuable to Reporting Person upon
                  exercise of the New Warrant. The total number of Shares
                  outstanding and the percentage held by the Reporting Person
                  are based on the representations of the Issuer contained in
                  the Securities Purchase Agreement between Reporting Person and
                  the Issuer dated as of March 29, 1999 (the "Securities
                  Purchase Agreement").

                  To the best knowledge of the Reporting Person, none of the
                  persons listed in Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 to the Statement
                  has any interest in any securities of the Issuer.

ITEM 6.   CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS
          WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

         The Issuer and Liberty IATV, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the

pursuant to which the Issuer sold and Liberty IATV purchased 3,000,000 Shares
(including 2,500,000 from the September Warrant) of Common Stock and the New
Warrant. The Issuer also executed and delivered the New Warrant wherein the
Issuer granted the right to purchase an additional 7,500,000 Shares as described
herein. These transactions closed on June 30, 1999. Copies of the Securities
Purchase Agreement and the New Warrant are incorporated by reference as Exhibits
7(a) and 7(b), respectively.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

         (a)  Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of March 29, 1999 between
              the Issuer and Liberty IATV, Inc.
