I can watch it on my phone and my iPad no problem. My question is what is the problem with casting it to a smart TV? Are there different versions of a BT Sport package through EE?
I have used a HDMI cable method. The sound works and the visual shows until you press play/live - a message from bt on the screen comes up “sorry you can’t watch BT Sport by mirroring your device”
I have tried to aircast via available methods (direct to the tv, via Apple etc) - nothing
I have downloaded the bt sport app to the smart tv (Samsung 2017 model) and after entering log on details it says that a subscription update is required and to contact your provider.
So if you are having the same issue the answer is it costs £10 per month, the Max plan BT Sport add on doesn’t include casting. Worth knowing if you see it as a good deal.
Yeah, I had already tried that first as per point 2. It doesn’t work. The BT Sport app has a casting option that defaults to a blank screen (tried this on a number of devices). I guess you don’t know the answer as it is third party controlled app and content - which makes it a bit worthless but thanks for replying.
Thanks Jon. I’m using Apple TV box. It works perfectly for everything except the bt sport app which will only allow sound and no visual. I’ve run lots of other apps through it such as bbc channel 4 etc etc and they all work. Bt sport clearly have a code written into it to prevent it working. I’ll have to watch it via iPad and accept it for what it is. Thanks again
