Ashtonwurzel Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Thought I would buy a day pass to watch the game tonight on my TV. What they don't tell you is that it doesn't work through a BT youview box and several over similar boxes apparently !! Does work on laptop but terrible buffering currently.

Cider red Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 I had same issue, need a now tv box for it to work or it buffers to shot on a laptop. Pop to your local supermarket they may have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyInWeston Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 If you are going to do what @Cider red has suggested, Argos sell one with a free sports month pass at the moment, but its £34.99. However they also sell one with 2 months of entertainment passes at £19.99. http://www.argos.co.uk/product/7093371 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumRed Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Perfectly fine for me through PS4, never had an issue. Was crap on my laptop but that was the laptops fault not nowtv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InCyder Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Works through a PS4 seamlessly, if you have one. An expensive option if not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh1t_ref_again Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Bought the other week from Argos for the Sheffield game when it was £25 (back now to £35) incl month sky sports, works very well on large TV, also you get a free 2 week cinema trial for the kids over Xmas. Might be worth a try for anyone, on ebay people sell codes for a day pass from 99p which are emailed instantly, so you can watch on a now TV box, lap top, LG tv or game machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can only imagine it's your internet that's the problem, works absolutely fine for me and I know nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Try resetting your router @Ashtonwurzel and plug in with a network cable rather than WiFi if you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't use BT because I think they are shite - that personal view out of the way. I gather that you don't have a Now TV box so, therefore, are looking to use a Now TV app (which I assume doesn't exist on the BT youview box in this case)? https://help.nowtv.com/article/what-devices-can-i-use-to-watch-now-tv As to the use of a computer... probably best to experiment with different browsers and players (see link above) - it might even be worth trying an ethernet (network) cable instead of WiFi? But as indicated by others, probably best to get the Now TV box (seems cheap enough but that is relative), you then have no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashtonwurzel Posted December 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 No playstations just a BT youview box and "standard" TV. Looks like I will have to write this one off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
