    BT box

    Hi All If this is not allowed please delete. I have the above box (4K Ultra) with a full BT subscription and wondered if it's possible to distribute around my home as they only give me the one box and if I want to watch sport in bedroom I can't (missus doesn't like my amount of sport interest!!!!!) Now I know you can do it with Sly but they have a card you can put in your VU+ (or whatever box) but this BT system doesn't have card (over internet) so is it possible please (have VU+ Uno 4K, Solo2 and Zero boxes I'd like to watch it on please) I know I won't get the 4K but HD would be nice
    Again sorry if this is not allowed and please delete

    You'll need to download the BT TV app from the Apple Store or Google Play shop to watch BT TV on your mobile or tablet

    http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/d...an-one-room%3F

    You could maybe use something like an odroid
    http://www.hardkernel.com/main/main.php


    and install the app on it as it has a hdmi out
    I use one to stream from my duo 2 to a tv in the kitchen its a small cigarette box sized quad core android box

    Never noticed that
    the odroid settings allow a different range of output 1080 I or P and 720 I or P

    are you saying the app itself is restricted i was using the VU HD player app
    Cheers
