Re: Streaming video - my experience

Just got my Vodafone TV delivered. Tested it out by pushing a 4K HEVC recording through it, no problems

Re: Streaming video - my experience

I have the old NowTV box, and have used it in the past, but not recently. Suitability again ties back to how you appear to be in the UK. When I used it I used a smartDNS to make it appear to be in...

Provided you can make them look like they are in the UK, then you can watch the live streams too.

Re: Streaming video - my experience

Interesting to see that streaming services took home many of the Emmys last night - Hulu, HBO, Netflix - about the only look in for conventional broadcast TV was NBC.

Also good to see Black...

Hardhome was a fishing village, so it would be no surprise that they would have chains for dragging big boats out of the water. However having them with them would suggest a level of planning, which...

Re: Streaming video - my experience

Got to say, HBO might only have 7 episodes of GoT this season, but the money is on the screen. The shots from the most recent episode wouldn't look out of place in Lord of the Rings.

Re: Streaming video - my experience

And it looks like the Crown did very well at the Golden Globes - Best TV Drama, and Best Actress TV Drama.
