iOS streaming app (get it before Apple pull it)

[Bozza]

I searched for Sky. First 2 failed, 3rd worked and is, it claims "Sky Movies: Premiere UK. It's showing one of the hangover films.

Sky Sports channels seem to have gone but if I search for sports, the first one works - "sports espn2". Second one doesn't. Third says "skysports2" but is, errrm, somewhat more adult in nature. Next is "Fox Sports HD" and is showing a triathlon or similar. Next is "NBC Sports" and is working - adverts currently.

Main difference between yesterday and right now is a search for "sky sports" is not returning anything.

Can you stream live from your device? In theory could someone stream Albion matches through this? Of course I would never condone anything like this

No, but you can with ustream (http://www.ustream.tv) as "a friend" of mine did a few times in the past...

Cheers for checking Bozza. Think my problem is that I'm connected to my company's network and I guess they are blocking access - weird because I've watched stuff on my phone at work before (wiziwig links). Tried to watch a sport channel on 3G and got a brief snippet of porn so it is working. Dunno if watching anything on 3G is viable but I certainly won't be trying it at work again until I find some 'safe' channels. Cheers again, Boz. Good app but useless to me if I can't use it at work...

Just downloaded it, seems to be working still. Nice one. Thanks

Sounds like a good friend to have

Do we need to buy Bozza's "friend" one of those cameras you can attach to a hat?

If one of the streams does not work keep clicking on it, they all work eventually.

I know this doesn't have airplay but does anyone know if you can get this on a android tv box or apple tv. Would b great to get this on the big screen.

Found them.

This was a lucky stream to get - http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/14068310 - watch from about 45 seconds.

Pretty much all the sky channels are still working for me. Bit of buffering here and there and sometimes I have to tap on a stream before it works, but alls good. So much so I thinking of going full Monty and pay the £2.50 for the full service

As an extra, regarding pop up ads and the like, I found Weblock on the App Store, which blocks them and allsorts. You have to set it up for each wifi spot you log on to, but it remembers the settings for next time.

Reading the comments here about the small ads reminded me of the irritations I *used* to have.

This streaming app is a dream though. Thanks for the heads up.

Watching the Spurs game through this app now - I'm assuming it didn't pick up Sky Sports before as no one was streaming it?

Good stuff

Good work, Bozza.
Regarding Apple TV, there's no symbol to switch to it, but I suppose you could mirror.

Looks like Google play has banned this ap (at least I can't find it).

Still on itunes

Great app. Watched the Sheffield United - Charlton game on this earlier.

 

[RandyWanger]

Lovely, thank you.

 

[Munchkin]

Can anyone tell me if there is a stream available on there for Cheltenham this afternoon ? Away on holiday and can't seem to find channel 4 on there ? Thanks in advance.

Unless it's just me, but It appears that all the sky channels have disappeared of the app

Yeah, where's Sky Sports gone? All I can get now is porn.
