Streaming on the Ipad

    I'm looking to see if there's any way of streaming the Heineken Cup final on my Ipad over the w/e. I have Sky Sports with UPC or am willing to pay a few euro to get a legitimate stream. Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks

    If you have a Sky Sports subscription, you should be able to use the Sky Go App.

    Edit: Or maybe not, actually - seems you might need 'Sky' Sky Sports for the App, which is a bit sh1t.

    Really? That is sh1t.

    The Sky Go app is crap looking too. Very basic functionality.

    I find the Sky Go app excellent.

    Quality is very good and a decent range of channels.

    While I only have the basic package in my apartment my parents have the sports package so I log into the app through their Sky account.

    What additional functionality were you expecting?

    agreed...sky go app is pretty good..I have the full package so can look at Sky Sports/Movies on my ipad at any time and it doesn't cost me anything extra.

    +1 for the skygo app.. it does exactly what it says on the tin..
    i use my mates login and have it on the i pad and on the mac connected to the tv, so its a win win and all for free...

    A daily/weekly program listing would be a start. What's on now and next doesn't cut it for me.

    The Sky+ app can do that.

    Have never had the need for bit bar recording a programme I know I am going to miss.

    As another poster said, does exactly what is says on the tin.

    Liveonlinefooty.com (usually more than football on it) you need to get a membership though - not dear at all.

    They're not accepting new members.

    Sky sports tv is only iphone for non sky subscribers.

    Tried to do this yesterday but found the skygo app wouldn't work when connected to tv. Only for the iPad screen. Had to use flash sport streams instead.

    No, it won't unless you have jailbroken iPhone/iPad

    Why so? I was trying to get the Heineken Cup final on the TV via Sky Go, too.

    What's the use of the bloody cable if you can't display your screen...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,581 ✭✭✭barryd09


    Because they want you to have a Sky Sports subscrption on your TV, sky go for...on the go.
