@Greenback1066 Can you be a little bit more clear on where you're watching the football that is 2 mins behind live broadcast?

The TV Box Mini has a TV guide with channels that are live, it also has the NOW app and discovery+ app where you can also watch sport but that will around 2 mins behind live broadcast.

Hi,It's the Discovery + app TNT Sports channels and Now TV with the Sky Sports channels that i am watching the football,in your reply you said it would be around 2 mins behind live broadcast,so i guess i'll have to put up with it?,or is there a way to rectify it to bring live tv back in sync. 

You do know, that those channels are in the TV guide and you don't need to be watching them via the apps?

They are live in the guide!

My colleagues call me Dazzler

Hi,Yes i do know that,but only got the Sky Sports channels as in the TV guide,whereas the TNT Sports channels are not in the TV guide only in the Discovery+ app,as only subscribed as part of my package with Discovery+ premium.

Ah ok gotcha, I got confused because you only get discovery+ premium with Sport if you have a Sport related package meaning you would have the channels in the guide.

So on that note, yes put up with it I suppose, but also I know these products well and it would seem you're lucky to have access to premium, so on that note...

Quick! Hide! 😆

Hi Darren,I've had a look at what i've got in my package and have Now Sports,does that not cover me from having the Discovery Plus Premium?.I'm paying £34.99 a month for the Entertainment.

Hi there @Greenback1066 

Thanks for coming back to the community 🙂

Our discovery+ on EE page has information on which TV package includes discovery+ basic and discovery+ premium, the Entertainment and Big Entertainment package includes discovery+ basic.

I have noticed that when the same live coverage is broadcast on TNT sports  and Eurosport multicast channels on EETV that the TNT channel is some seconds behind the Eurosport channel. Of course the Eurosport channels will be no more after today. 

@Greenback1066 you must have TNT in the guide too, only way to get Sky in the guide is a tv package & the packages that have Sky all have TNT in the guide & via discovery+ included too

Not true.

Anyone with EETV will always find TNT in the EPG, but these channels will only actually work if the correct subscription has been bought, and it’s perfectly possible to subscribe to Now Sky Sports without also subscribing to TNT.

Also, those customers who have taken TNT as a bundled offer with a product from the EE Store have found that it is only accessible via the Discovery+ app, and not via the EETV EPG.
