Jan 7, 2024 · Note that Sky+ / Sky+ HD hardware cannot host any apps, including iPlayer. As @caesarome indicates, channel owners have to offer on-demand content to those (now rather old) boxes differently. For iPlayer itself you'd need Sky Q, Sky Glass/Stream or some other modern app-hosting device.

Aug 24, 2024 · When I access BBC iPlayer on either my HDR recorder or my Blu-ray player, there is a banner informing that iPlayer will no longer be available 'on this device' from 30th October 2024. I much prefer to watch iPlayer material on either of those devices, because I can feed the audio signal through my amplifier and then to my headphones.

Nov 21, 2023 · "The BBC doesn't provide a UHD download option on Sky. Depending on which version of Sky Q box you have you may be able to watch UHD by using the iPlayer app instead of the download option, but only the latest (3rd generation) boxes support iPlayer UHD." Hi, Thanks for the reply. My hardware version is: 32B108.

Jan 29, 2025 · When I try to sign in to the BBC iplayer app on my Sky Q box it will not generate a code or QR code for the iplayer sign-in site. It just sits with a spinning circle. I have tried the following with no success: Reset by holding power button. Reset by disconnecting power. All 3 resets in the hidden settings menu. App refresh from the hidden menu

Oct 17, 2023 · Sorry I couldn't see a more appropriate forum for this: it's not about content nor the technical delivery side

Dec 1, 2024 · I feel like this is another step closer/clue to BBC eventually having every single episode of EastEnders available on iPlayer. It would make them the first broadcaster AFAIK to have a soap's complete run available to stream.

Feb 6, 2024 · Had a 'We notice you've been using iPlayer' email from TV Licensing. I don't have a TV License as the majority of what I watch is on Netflix/Prime/Now/etc. TV isn't even connected to an aerial and I don't use iPlayer, but according to the email their 'records show [I've] used BBC iPlayer on a number of occasions over recent weeks.' and that I need to buy a license.

May 29, 2024 · Depends on the Sky Q Box model. Obviously if the Q box is not UHD compatible then the Iplayer will not support 4k, but also some of the UHD HDR boxes also do not support BBC Iplayer 4k. I have a V2 2TB box (32B1NN) which although supports 4k HDR (providing set to 10 Bit not 8 bit), does not suppor...

Jan 15, 2025 · With regards to BBC, I want to 'stream' Traitors and have it on demand so I can catch up on episodes when it suits me but I can't as 1. I can't record it and 2. There's no BBC iplayer in ROI. With other apps like channel 4 this is not a problem as we can access the channel 4 app to watch episodes on demand.

Dec 7, 2023 · When in BBC IPlayer half way through streaming a programme screen goes black. If I do nothing it stays black. Only way to fix is to put skyq to standby then switch back on, and then reload IPlayer
