    I have notice that there is no sport on Sky on Demand tonight.

    Has anyone else noticed this?

    Since no one answered my Query, can anyone tell me if they still are receiving the sport content on sky on demand tv?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 296 ✭✭energy1942


    Sky sport was available until yesterday by pressing tv guide button, then scrolling on to sports, then to on demand & press select, but now it has been replaced by "for your information there are no programmes of this type"

    Anyone know why this has happened?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 296 ✭✭energy1942


    Is the fact that no one has replied to my Query mean that this a probably a problem with my boxes alone?

    Bates Motel
    Vinnie Jones: russia's toughtest

    Do you have a broadband connection to your sky box?

    Yes you need a broadband connection to get the whole on demand package.

    i thought it was just the same as before, with anytime or whatever they called it, see i only got the HD box recently & connected y'day

    anyway i connected it there & there's nothing showing up for sport, it's the same message you got

    I wonder if this is yet another restriction for those of us in ROI?

    No itv, Europa league etc

    is it the ITV in on demand that doesn't work?
    does 4OD?

    i wouldn't really call the europa league a restriction since others have the rights here - setanta & TV3

    was the on demand sports working OK before the other night

    It was working fine until Monday night,

    I meant not being not able to get ITV on the EPG

    i took out the ethernet cable again but champions league goals are showing up now with me without it, maybe it's all back now

    My problem is that I have sky on demand on tv but despite being a subscriber to the sky world package I am not getting any sports content, I have everything else movies, news, & entertainment etc.

    i have it if i connect it up.

    i think it's just the showcase stuff that appears when you aren't connected to the internet

    he seemed more interested in helping me :pac:

    I'll ask in another thread in the soccer forum to see if anyone else answers

    I would be grateful for any help with this, I am very surprised that people are not kicking up a lot more about this, as we are surely entitled to have it, once we are subscribed to both sky sports 1 & 2.

    yeah you'd think so
    in the other threads i asked the only replies (2) were from people who weren't connected to the internet, one might check it later if they remember/are bothered

    i found this thread on it
    what the OP says in it appears true, if i search 'paul' that interview comes up & sky sports as the channel - it downloads & plays too

    i tried a few terms then myself, 'super' shows up some on demand content
    but searching 'revista' (de la liga), 'sunday' (supplement) & 'wwe' had nothing for on demand.
    you'll know better what should be on it, i'm not even sure if any of those should be there

    the solution from that thread is to go Catch Up > Sky Sports > Sports Vault

    we don't have that in ireland do we? or i can't see it anyway
    in my 'on demand' i've 'showcase', 'box sets', 'movies' & 'sky store' - is this right for ireland or do i need to update the software?

    As far as I know we have never had the Catch Up section in Ireland
