Aug 24, 2024 · When I access BBC iPlayer on either my HDR recorder or my Blu-ray player, there is a banner informing that iPlayer will no longer be available 'on this device' from 30th October 2024. I much prefer to watch iPlayer material on either of those devices, because I can feed the audio signal through my amplifier and then to my headphones.

Jan 7, 2024 · Note that Sky+ / Sky+ HD hardware cannot host any apps, including iPlayer. As @caesarome indicates, channel owners have to offer on-demand content to those (now rather old) boxes differently. For iPlayer itself you'd need Sky Q, Sky Glass/Stream or some other modern app-hosting device.

Jan 29, 2025 · When I try to sign in to the BBC iplayer app on my Sky Q box it will not generate a code or QR code for the iplayer sign-in site. It just sits with a spinning circle. I have tried the following with no success: Reset by holding power button. Reset by disconnecting power. All 3 resets in the hidden settings menu. App refresh from the hidden menu

Dec 1, 2024 · I feel like this is another step closer/clue to BBC eventually having every single episode of EastEnders available on iPlayer. It would make them the first broadcaster AFAIK to have a soap's complete run available to stream.

Feb 6, 2024 · Had a 'We notice you've been using iPlayer' email from TV Licensing. I don't have a TV License as the majority of what I watch is on Netflix/Prime/Now/etc. TV isn't even connected to an aerial and I don't use iPlayer, but according to the email their 'records show [I've] used BBC iPlayer on a number of occasions over recent weeks.' and that I need to buy a license.

May 29, 2024 · Depends on the Sky Q Box model. Obviously if the Q box is not UHD compatible then the Iplayer will not support 4k, but also some of the UHD HDR boxes also do not support BBC Iplayer 4k. I have a V2 2TB box (32B1NN) which although supports 4k HDR (providing set to 10 Bit not 8 bit), does not suppor...

Jan 15, 2025 · With regards to BBC, I want to 'stream' Traitors and have it on demand so I can catch up on episodes when it suits me but I can't as 1. I can't record it and 2. There's no BBC iplayer in ROI. With other apps like channel 4 this is not a problem as we can access the channel 4 app to watch episodes on demand.

Dec 17, 2024 · The BBC catch up is still available on Sky and I prefer to use it rather than the BBC iPlayer, just due to fast-forward and rewind is so clunky on iPlayer whereas on the catch-up it's just like a regular recording and you can navigate it with ease.
