Freeview apps to work on TV?

    Anyone know how I can get Freeview Play to work outside of Britain?

    I've gotten a new TV but as I'm in Ireland I can't use any of the Freeview apps.

    It's a Hisense which doesn't support any VPN apps so they're out the window.

    Is there a way I can change the IP settings manually?

    Thanks guys

    You should be able to change the DNS settings (usually under advanced / manual settings when your connecting to WiFi or setting up the wired connection) and use a Smart DNS service that will spoof your location to be in the UK and the apps will work.

    Brilliant, thanks for the info. Just got it working there though Express VPN DNS service
