Jerseybean Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 I usually watch BCTV or ‘Robins TV’ through an iPad linked by a HDMI cable to a TV, however, for some mysterious reason today I was unable to get anything on the TV although it was ok on the iPad. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know how to fix the problem please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseybean Posted August 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 Thank you for your replies. Have tried two different HDMI cables and they both work, so wondering if it’s to do with the IOS update Any other suggestions please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBW Posted August 18, 2019 Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 Use a laptop. Tablets are for children and old ladies to play Roblox and Solitaire on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedinSpain Posted August 18, 2019 Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 I use a laptop to TV via HDMI - works very well. Never tried a tablet sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchay Red Posted August 18, 2019 Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 Sky Go have stopped users having the ability to use hdmi cable and view on a TV from a tablet. Perhaps Robins TV have done the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted August 18, 2019 Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 Personally I use my iPhone and transfer the video to the Apple TV in the living room. If you have a Apple TV you could do the same with your iPad. Little tip: turn off the auto screen lock during the match otherwise when the phone/tablet locks the image is lost on the TV.
