    All video stuck for the last two or 3 minutes - not the broken digital signal lost consumer-side type.

    TG4 & Virgin all fine.

    I'm just posting for tech behind-the-scenes info on what would've caused this.

    It is what it's.

    They probably haven't paid their fee to be carried on the Sky platform, and Sky pulled the plug on their sorry asses.

    came here to post about it.

    if really stuck to watch rte1 or 2 next workaround is select RTE player on the laptop and chromecast it to the TV - personally i am watching a repeat of richard osmans house of games on challenge

    Even the +1 RTE stations are the same



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,344 ✭✭✭✭branie2

    They’ve posted this on Twitter

    ”We are aware of Sky Q/Glass/Stream customers experiencing issues with RTÉ channels freezing. Support teams are engaged and working to get this resolved.

    In the meantime, you can access RTÉ content, both live and on-demand via the RTÉ Player on your set top box/Glass TV.”
