when selecting - it works but displays a red message.

im not on any Beta Testing for this otherwise i would not post anything here.

is this correct?

Finally!!

if EE TV are able to add GBNews very quickly, I’m sure this could have been added sooner!

@Hellosean123 It’s not down to EE on what they can add it’s down the service provider to allow EE to add it. You know the legal implementations of streaming other wise it’s called illegal.

Huh?

can you explain what you mean that ‘streaming is illegal’?

I don’t get your response!

I assume it's related to your "if EE TV are able to add GBNews very quickly, I’m sure this could have been added sooner!" comment @Hellosean123 - i.e. we can't add anything to our TV service without approval of the content providers.

The YouTube app has been in development/testing for many many months. The time it takes depends on the complexity of the solution and implementation.

Thanks,

im doubtful it was relating to that, I was just confused by “You know the legal implementations of streaming other wise it’s called illegal. ” which comes across that I’m doing something wrong and illegal, when … I’m not.

but let’s wait for the reply.

The YouTube app is now available on the TV Box Pro and TV Box Mini - simply check for software updates, and it will appear. Alternatively, boxes will update themselves overnight tonight.
