This is the right place ;) You are correct - Philips TV arent supported devices.
You neighbour will need a streaming device that is supported to watch Now.
As @Atlantic Dawn suggested, NowTV Stick - best budget option with least hassle.
But Firestick or GoogleTV other streaming device will give added functionality with other apps. I find it useful as you can run a VPN app that allows you to access Netflix catalogues of other countries. Its amazing what you can watch with this hack.
I use phones to cast Now TV sometimes. If you dont actually open the channel on your phone it shouldnt register as one of the devices.
Steps:
1. Open Now TV App
2.Press the Cast button immediately before doing anything else - you will see a Splash screen appear on TV.
3.Select the channel you wish to watch (from phone app).
4.Channel appears on TV but not on phone.
If you swap 2 and 3 you will have 2 devices taken from your list.
Firestick or a more cost effective option would be the NowTV Stick if you can get one, currently priced at €15 including 1 months Sports or €10 with 2 months Entertainment or Movies. Both these devices connect via the HDMI slots on the TV, just double check there are some free to connect to, amount varies from 2 to 4, Philips might have 3.
Firestick allows more options down the line for other TV Apps, depends really what they want it for, if only ever will be NowTV then the NowTV Stick will do the job.
Definitely not the right place to post this, but hopefully somebody can help me out ,i am trying to download the NOW TV app for a neighbour on their new Philips smart tv, doesn't look like the option to download is there , and from what i can establish online, Philips Smart tv is not compatible wit the now tv app for downloading, and they will need to get a firestick to have it on their smart TV ?
Thanks for any pointers or help, both me and the neighbour scratching our heads that this modern TV cant download the now tv app.
What does that mean in practical terms, like if I have a stick and account can two others just download the Now TV app to their smart TV or firestick and watch it that way with it only counting as one device? Or do they need a physical now stick and then login with my account details?
Aldi
Seems you are right there, was in Power City Tallaght- sold out, Tesco- sold out and DID- sold out nationwide.
Aside from Harvey Norman do any other retailers carry them, Woodies maybe?
Also don't forget that casting Now TV to a Chromecast device counts as two devices.
Not sure you will find 10 sticks.. they are sold out everywhere I have checked. Was in a few Tescos, DIDs, Harvey Normans over the past few days and only managed to get 3 sports sticks
Right so the current state of play is you can get 3 months Sky Sports for 30 euro and 6 months BT for 60. Im looking for a full season solution and at @TimHorton suggestion am thinking of buying 10 x 15 euro sticks to have both Sky and BT through to the end of the season in May.
Looking to see if there are two other posters here who would share the account, I can upgrade to Boost for 5 euros extra a month and then three devices can watch Sky & BT simultaneously. So it would be 20 a month between three of us or 66.66 euro each for the season, could sort it out via Revlout. PM me if interested, Im keen to get it set up soon and would buy the 10 sticks tomorrow if two others would join up.
When the 15th August comes you probably wont need a code at all, I just went to cancel Sports Extra there a minute ago and it is offering me the membership at 10 per month for 6 months. Im tempted but will have to see what I can get the Sky Sports package for, upon cancelling they offered it at 23.76 per month for 3 months, I went through and cancelled it at that. For a second I thought the offer was 23.76 for all three months the way it was written but no it was per month.
NOWSSMMOWB just worked for me, €5 per month for 4 months - thanks to @Healio who posted it on the previous page (although it looks like copy & paste resulted in the two separate codes for "Cinema" and "Entertainment" both being marked as "Cinema")
Cheers,
Eddie
I'm holding out for an Entertainment code if any around. Think I was on €3 a month but it's up now any day.
You have to be within 31 days of your end date. So you can use the code from the 15 August (although I'd wait a day or two longer for certainty).
Question. I'm on a sports extra offer till 14 September. If I cancel it now, how soon can I use the code for 6 months membership? Tried it there and it wouldn't let me use it, said I was still on an offer. Do I have to wait a certain amount of time to start another offer?
Just checked premier sports TV listings for next weekend and they’re showing 5 la liga games so there must be no la liga TV…… for us anyway.
gone with the sports extra for 6 months.
any boost offers?
Yes i did 👍, just posting this incase it suited someone
No just for Sky
Pretty much once I was 29 days out I would try cancel to see what offers came up or I'd use a code posted on this thread. That was 13-15 for Sky Sports only.
Just buy the nowtv sticks with sports and sports extra for €15 per month
Out of interest at what point in the 30 day period were you 'cancelling', did the offers get any better closer to the end of the sub or just the same? Also was the 13-15 a month for SS only or BT on top?
is that for both sky sports and extra
€19.99 per month for 6 months Sports Membership
Hurry! Offer expires 15 August.
code: NOWSPMQ1SSWB
I’m going to use Now just until the last games prior to the World Cup then hopefully get the 30quid deal for Sky Sports & Extra from Stephen’s Day until the end of the season on Sky Q.
The 4K HDR with Sky Sports is out of this universe
For those interested Premier Sports have 1 x 3pm Saturday EPL game live and all of the games that Amazon have in the UK including St Stephen’s Day.
Amazon can’t be legally streamed here
That might tempt me to take up that 6 month tenner a month option if true.
Hopefully not a UK only offer.
Not sure either - @Johemian may be correct.
This is from the LaLiga website
How can I watch LaLiga in Ireland?
From the 1st of July, the LaLigaTV channel will no longer be available on Sky.
All LaLigaTV content including live games and pre/post match analysis will be available to watch live via Premier Sports 1 and 2 next season.
For channel information from LaLiga fixtures, please visit https://www.premiersports.com/sports/football/laliga-until-2025
I think premier sports are just showing some la liga games rather than including la liga TV.
I can’t see any detail on how to get it here….
La Liga TV never used to be part of the sports extra package, did it?
Lads if I buy the 15 euro stick with a months free Sky Sports included can I also buy the 3 month/10e a month pass and stack it on top of the initial free month?
