Not sure about Fire TV but I can't get it to work with Chromecast from my iPhone. Until thats sorted, I won't be paying for it.

Itssoeasy · 16-08-2023 09:56PM

Chromecast is on the DAZN app now. I just saw it but clicked on not allowing it and now I can’t seem to get it back but just to let people know it’s there on the iOS app anyway. And the pre season games are now on demand and won’t disappear after a week and so that’s a good sign for the regular season.

edit: just saw it on the iPhone app as well. Didn’t use it but it’s definitely there. That’s a good addition. If they could just **** remove the ads and edit the full games now they look to be good to go.

Still no casting for me. I get the option of Picture in Picture which is up around where the cast option should be. I can put sound through my TV/Sky but no casting.

Okay well it was absolutely there for me last night. I was shocked when I saw it.

See DAZN has reduced the price for a season pass for our British friends, don't see the same discount for us. Anyone see a reduced price on the full season pro pass?

Itssoeasy · 18-08-2023 06:20PM

Okay @myate chrome cast support is now definitely on the DAZN app.

No still the crazy €166.99 coming up for me. Seems to be former UK Game Pass subscribers who turned off auto renew got an email from DAZN offering a £26 discount

Unsurprisingly it's clear the DAZN move has lost a significant number of subscribers that DAZN are already resorting to offering discounts at such an early stage. Hope people hold out and wait for larger discounts come the season start. I'd sign back up for no less than a 50% discount

franglan · 18-08-2023 08:51PM

I'll be signing up either way but not until the regular season starts as preseason is the preseason and also free on DAZN.

You're lucky it's working for you...been onto customer service & they keep telling me it's not available for Ireland yet (chromecast support)!!

kalamityjim · 22-08-2023 02:21AM

Has anyone got a surefire way of watching Game Pass on their TV yet?! I'm willing to try anything!

I have Chromecast but not getting any casting icon on the app or website. DAZN Customer Support tells me Chromecast is supported and despite what I say, their best solution to the problem so far is to just keep telling me to make sure my wifi is switched on!! On their website they seem to say that Chromecast isn't supported though - see https://www.dazn.com/en-ZA/help/articles/supported-devices#UK2

I'd gladly get a firestick or even upgrade the TV or something like that if I thought it would work cos NFL is practically the only thing I watch but from dealing with DAZN so far, I wouldn't trust them to have anything working! So I'm not going to go buy something unless I know it will work!

So basically, what are the best ways to watch NFL Game Pass on the DAZN app on your TV instead of the mobile app or website, or is it even working for anyone yet?

Brendan Bendar · 22-08-2023 08:39AM

Anyone have an email address for these Dazn punters?

I tried last week to log in to Dazn on Fire Tv with no joy, tried again at the weekend and it worked, quality of stream is much better than last years GamePass, I'm very happy with it atm.

Itssoeasy · 22-08-2023 04:43PM

quality of stream is much better than last years GamePass.

that’s faint praise.

You have customer support saying casting is supported...while I get customer support saying it isn't for Ireland yet! I'd happily pay if it was working, like Gamepass did for all those years (bar the one year it melted down, but they did refunds!) but not paying for the unknown. Redzone or Sky for any Niner games for me, or Youtube extended highlights - until Dazn sort it.

myate · 23-08-2023 01:25PM

Can't see NFL doing anything but worth a scribble on this - https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/dazn-is-destroying-the-gamepass-nfl-experience

mooreman09 · 23-08-2023 04:38PM

I use DAZN for boxing and have for years. It can be a bit messy at times but I do like it.

I find it much easier using the Firestick App.

Itssoeasy · 23-08-2023 06:10PM

So the latest update is they’ve brought back the ability to go to individual moments in games and there is clear markings for the start of each quarter and as mentioned the picture quality is much better and consistent than previous years. My biggest is the fact that they won’t edit the full games after the fact. So bloody close to it being really good imo.

Oat23 · 23-08-2023 07:12PM

No, was going to buy gamepass for the first time but not with blackouts, will use streams

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121010319#Comment_121010319

I have used the DAZN app on my Nvidia shield for a few years now without any problems. I don't see why it wouldn't work on any official android/Google TV stick.

You can pick up a Chromecast Google TV (different from the old Chromecasts) for about €40 in the likes of Harvey Norman. I have a few of them around the house and can test the DAZN app to confirm it works on them if you like?

So are there no condensed games?

Is it still working? Because it seems to be intermittently working on Chromecast for some ppl here too. Only going to get a firestick if it is consistently working! Thanks btw

There are.

kevin7 · 23-08-2023 11:11PM

Works on firestick. Initially, it didn't...it would not get past the login screen. On a webchat with their tech support yesterday I uninstalled and reinstalled. Then it worked. I had initially installed about 2 or 3 weeks ago.

Working fine on the Chromecast. App is available on the play store.

adrian522 · 24-08-2023 02:59PM

Yes, buying gamepass for the first time regardless

There is an LG tv app as well that seems to work ok

which chromecast is that? Newer one with Google TV?

Yes. The 4K one to be exact, but apart from the increased resolution and slightly more ram it's the same as the HD version.

kalamityjim · 29-08-2023 05:04AM

Got a firestick and works on that. My Chromecast is the older model so perhaps that's part of the problem. Thanks for the help. Bring on Week 1 vs the Packers!

teachinggal123 · 31-08-2023 11:52AM

Has anyone done the calculations for DAZN (166euro) v Now TV with Sky Sports for the duration of the season? I tried, and it looks similar?

Justin10 · 31-08-2023 04:07PM

So surely gamepass is the better option for just NFL, as you will be able to watch most of your teams games and redzone at the same time.

NFL Gamepass blackouts. Will you be signing up?
