                                  Statement of

                            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 2.  IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

         Item 2 of the Statement is hereby replaced in its entirety with the
following:

         The reporting person is Liberty Media Corporation whose principal
business address is 9197 South Peoria Street, Englewood, Colorado 80112.

         The Reporting Person succeeded to the beneficial ownership of the
Shares as a result of the merger (the "Merger") of Italy Merger Corp., a wholly
owned subsidiary of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T"), with and into Tele-Communications, Inc.
("TCI"). TCI, as the corporate parent entity of the Reporting Person, had
previously filed a Report on Schedule 13D reporting beneficial ownership of the
Shares, which at that time were attributed to TCI's Liberty Media Group.


<PAGE>   4


                                                                    Page 4 of 12


         In the Merger: (i) TCI became a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T, (ii)
the businesses and assets of the Liberty Media Group and TCI Ventures Group of
TCI were combined, and (iii) the holders of TCI's Liberty Media Group common
stock and TCI Ventures Group common stock received in exchange for their shares
a new class of common stock of AT&T intended to reflect the results of AT&T's
"Liberty Media Group." Following the Merger, AT&T's "Liberty Media Group"
consists of the assets and businesses of TCI's Liberty Media Group and its TCI
Ventures Group prior to the Merger, except for certain assets which were
transferred to TCI's "TCI Group" in connection with the Merger, the "AT&T
Wireless Group" consists of the assets of the wireless operations of AT&T, and
the "AT&T Common Stock Group" consists of all of the other assets and businesses
of AT&T. AT&T's principal business address is 32 Avenue of the Americas, New
York, New York, 10013. AT&T is principally engaged in the business of providing
voice, data and video communications services to large and small businesses,
consumers and government entities in the United States and internationally.

         On March 10, 2000, in connection with certain restructuring
transactions, TCI was converted into a Delaware limited liability company, of
which AT&T is the sole member, and renamed AT&T Broadband, LLC ("AT&T
Broadband"). AT&T Broadband's principal business address is 9197 South Peoria
Street, Englewood, Colorado 80112. AT&T Broadband is principally engaged through
its subsidiaries and affiliates in the acquisition, development and operation of
cable television systems throughout the United States.

         The Board of Directors and management of the Reporting Person manage
the business and affairs of the Reporting Person, including, but not limited to,
making determinations regarding the disposition and voting of the Shares.
Although the Reporting Person is a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T, a majority
of the Reporting Person's Board of Directors consists of individuals designated
by TCI prior to the Merger. If these individuals or their designated successors
cease to constitute a majority of the Reporting Person's Board of Directors, the
Reporting Person will transfer all of its assets and businesses to a new entity.
Although this new entity would be owned substantially by AT&T, it would continue
to be managed (including with respect to the voting and disposition of the
Shares) by management of the Reporting Person prior to such transfer of assets.

         As a result, the Reporting Person, acting through its Board of
Directors and management, will have the power to determine how the Shares will
be voted and, subject to the limitations of the Delaware General Corporation
Law, will have the power to dispose of the Shares, and thus is considered the
beneficial owner of the Shares for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

         The Liberty Media Group, principally through the Reporting Person, is
engaged in (i) the production, acquisition and distribution through all
available formats and media of branded entertainment, educational and
informational programming and software, including multimedia products, (ii)
electronic retailing, direct marketing, advertising sales related to programming
services, infomercials and transaction processing, (iii) international cable
television distribution, telephony and programming, (iv) satellite
communications, and (v) investments in wireless domestic telephony and other
technology ventures.

         Schedule 1 attached to this Statement contains the following

neither the Reporting Person nor any of the Schedule 1 Persons (to the knowledge
of the Reporting Person) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding
traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). During the last five years, neither
the Reporting Person nor any of the Schedule 1 Persons (to the knowledge of the
Reporting Person) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such
proceeding, is or was subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal
or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

         Schedule 2 attached to this Statement contains the following
information, which has been provided to the Reporting Person by AT&T, concerning
each director, executive officer or controlling person of AT&T: (i) name and
residence or business address, (ii) principal occupation or employment, and
(iii) the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other
organization in which such employment is conducted. Schedule 2 is incorporated
herein by reference.

         Based upon information provided to the Reporting Person by AT&T, (i) to
the knowledge of AT&T, each of the persons named on Schedule 2 (the "Schedule 2
Persons") is a United States citizen, (ii) during the last five years, neither
AT&T nor any of the Schedule 2 Persons (to the knowledge of AT&T) has been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors), and (iii) during the last five years, neither AT&T nor any of the
Schedule 2 Persons (to the knowledge of AT&T) has been a party to a civil
proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and,
as a result of such proceeding, is or was subject to a judgment, decree or final
order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities
subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with
respect to such laws.

         The foregoing summary of the terms of the Merger is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the text of the Agreement and Plan of Restructuring and
Merger, dated as of June 23, 1998, among AT&T, Italy Merger Corp. and TCI, a
copy of which has been incorporated by reference as Exhibit 7(c), and to the
text of the AT&T/TCI Proxy Statement/Prospectus, a copy of which has been
incorporated by reference as Exhibit 7(d).

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

         In addition to the 13,000,000 Shares of Common Stock beneficially owned
by the Reporting Person and previously disclosed in the Statement, the Reporting
Person used working capital to purchase 793,000 shares of Common Stock through
multiple purchases on the open market between June 13, 2000 and July 11, 2000
for a combined purchase price of $11,419,599.25.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

         Item 5(a) of the Statement is hereby replaced in its entirety with the
following:

         (a)      The Reporting Person presently beneficially owns 13,793,000
                  Shares of Common Stock which represent approximately 25.2% of
                  the 49,644,894 Shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May
                  12, 2000 after giving effect to the issuance of 5,000,000
                  Shares of Common Stock issuable to the Reporting Person upon
                  exercise of the second and third Tranches of the Warrant
                  previously reported in the Statement. The total number of
                  Shares outstanding and the percentage held by the Reporting
                  Person are based on the representations of the Issuer
                  contained in Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2000
                  filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15,
                  2000.

                  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.

                  Schedule 3 to this Amendment Number 2 lists the identity of
                  the purchaser, the date of purchase, the price per share and
                  the nature of the transactions in which the Reporting Person
                  acquired additional Shares of Common Stock. Schedule 3 is
                  incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 6.  CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDING OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

                  The Reporting Person has agreed that it will not acquire
                  securities of the Issuer except to the extent that immediately
                  after such acquisition the ownership of the Issuer by the
                  Reporting Person (including entities controlled by it) will
                  not exceed 26% of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer.
                  For purposes of this calculation, all derivative securities of
                  Issuer held by Reporting Person (including entities controlled
                  by it) will be deemed converted, and all shares of the Issuer
                  redeemed or purchased by the Issuer will be deemed
                  outstanding. Furthermore, pursuant to this provision, the
                  Reporting Person will not transfer more than 10% of the
                  outstanding common shares of the Issuer (except pursuant to a
                  public registration or Rule 144 promulgated under the
                  Securities Act of 1933) unless the transferee agrees to be
                  bound by these restrictions. This Agreement is set forth in
                  the Securities Purchase Agreement dated March 29, 1999 between
                  the Reporting Person, Liberty IATV, Inc. and the Issuer which
                  is attached as Exhibit (a) to Amendment Number 1 to the
                  Statement.
