    Hi All,

    I’ve got Now TV. While it has the RTÉ player app, it doesn’t appear to show live TV.

    Is this the case?

    Thanks

    It shows live TV if you have a pass for any of the following.
    Entertainment
    Sport
    Movies
    Kids
    Hayu

    I wasn’t clear in my post. What I mean is that it’s not showing live TV on RTÉ Payer.

    I haven't used Now Tv but in relation to the RTE player I always thought that it was a catch up service. Could be wrong

    Well on an iPad and an iPhone you can watch live TV in the ‘On Now’ section of the RTÉ Player app

    Does anyone know of other media streaming devices that show RTÉ player live TV (“ON NOW”). It appears NOW TV doesn’t.

    Neither my Now tv or the android app on my phone do live TV.

    I know when I got the android app first on an android box the live TV worked but box series would not work.

    Mabey RTÉ have removed live TV from some of its apps.

    @somedude,

    In the Broadcasting forum they are speaking about the new rte player, you'll probably get good information there

    Hi All,

    Quick few questions here for someone who will know the answer straight away!

    I got 2 free NOW TV Entertainment passes for 1 month each off some chocolate bars recently.

    Tried redeeming and brings me to Irish site which is fair enough.

    I want to know is am I only entitled to a 2 week trial then? Also this looks like it is available to anybody, maybe that's not the case if someone could clarify. Also then could I activate both together say and cancel both straight away to make up a month's worth of viewing??

    Finally what way do I view then is it set up account, download an app and cast to my TV or is this possible? Don't particularly want to view from a tablet.

    Content looks alright as I have no access to Sky Atlantic so looked like I could watch Chernobyl, Handmaids Tale and Sopranos again to name a few!

    Thanks in advance

    I have a Now TV sub and I tried to login on my LG TV to the app.

    I keep getting an error something along the lines of "something bad happened try again". Now everything has been rebooted unistalled. I asked support who said because my Tv (bought in currys Dublin) is a UK version I cannot use the app... seems bonkers

    Anyone able to fix this issue and get the app working on LG Tvs?

    Dont have an active sub at the moment but was working for me a few months back. My TV came from Currys to (2017 model though).

    Have you set your internet services to Ireland in the menu settings (this is separate to tuner country)?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 879 ✭✭✭Kurn


    It was the location on the TV, it was set to the UK. Once I did that Two now TV apps appeared and RTE player made a return. Sorted!

    Now TV Ireland app is finally available on Apple TV, but you will have to search for it to download.

    Full sports package on offer for 30 euro a month for the first 3 months. Pretty good offer with all the Christmas football coming up. I wonder would this include La Liga tv when it launches...probably not.

    €30 for both passes, €73 for both after 3 months. Any wonder people are enticed by alternative, dodgy means

    They'll offer you another deal when you try to cancel after the 3 months, you'll never pay €73.

    Call me old fashioned but I’d much prefer they tell me how much and if I’m interested, I’ll pay it. Not a fan of made up theoretical prices and me having to ring up and haggle to get the best deal ... €15 Netflix, I know what I’m getting into


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭ffocused


    Sports Extra is €17 pm without Sky Sports for first 3 months.

    Price will only show up when you add it to your basket.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 476 ✭✭cc


    Got an email offer yesterday from Now TV offering 3 months sports extra for €30 up front, snapped it up.

    How are you working it out to 73?

    I got the pigsback offer last month which is about 70+ for three months of sky sports alone.

    Sky Sports is €39 per month and Sports Extra is €34 per month at full price, which is €73

    The offer at the moment for new customers is both packs for €30 per month for 3 months

    Oh right thought you were saying 73 for 3 months.

    On the vanilla subscription discount til Dec so little incentive to upgrade to extra pack.
