I've just ordered lead from apple to connect iPad to TV via hdmi lead so you could do it that way

Doesn't work with a lead either as far as i am aware  :rolleyes: Sky blame it on licensing but that is just nonsense as you can play it on your tv via a lap top & lead just not an iphone or ipad

100% doesn't work with a lead as it's encrypted. Doesn't work on jail broken or rooted devices either.

I know because I work on Sky Go... ;)

I have just discovered that airplay for Sky Go works perfectly well on my Retina Mac Book Pro which is great news as i can now watch Sky in my bedroom as well & multi room wasn't an option for us as we used a shared dish & the LNB was full:cool:

That's because it's encrypted for transmission to a TV via any tablet. It's meant to beike that due to licensing agreements :-)

LNB full! Wowser! Have you got an Octo LNB?

That's 4x + or 8 std boxes. You could always get a second dish by an indie. :-)

Haven't got a clue just know to have a second box we had to pay for a new LNB and as we rent wasn't prepared to pay for that plus our landlord then decided no one could add new ariels,dishes etc

Apple Tv is perfect as can access my Mac or network drive from it plus airplay free view etc but could never do Sky which was annoying but having just got a new mac book realised i can now airplay sky & so i should be able to as that whole licensing thing is bullsh!t they are just worried about people getting Sky free which i don't for reference i do pay their extortionate fee for terrible tv  :grin:

I'd probably ask if you have an Octo. The phone advisors won't know, but if you can get an engineer to check for you.. Most have a quad LNB, so worth checking :-)

Already had it checked by an engineer thats who told us we needed a new LNB as said irrelevant now anyway as not allowed to make any changes to ariels or dishes etc
