Title: BBC ITV Ch4 & 5 etc FREE on Iphone Works Anywhere!
Post by: Scunner on August 16, 2011, 21:35:25 PM: Currently the number 1 iphone app in Holland so it must be good :D

This free app claims to work all over the globe irrespective of your IP. Good channel list too:

It's pretty good too - works with wireless but not with 3G

For iphone/ipad: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/filmon-live-tv-hdi-anytime/id427900675?mt=8

ALSO AVAILABLE FOR ANDROID: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gzero.filmon

Hope that helps :)

Post by: Scunner on August 17, 2011, 20:59:53 PM: You can stream it to your home telly using Apple TV but that is another expense of course.

Post by: stoop on August 18, 2011, 09:31:53 AM: Fantastic App! My sons in Thailand will love this.

Apple tv costs about £100 so it could be worth the investment for those who want to hook it up to the TV. I wonder if I can get it to do the same with my Sony Netbox as I have a server set up. Not sure though. Must try it when I have a few spare minutes. Depending on what footy you can get on CL nights etc I might just invest in and Apple TV Box as well - but don't tell the missus!

Post by: stoop on August 18, 2011, 09:33:49 AM: Apple TV for under £90.

Post by: TheBruces187 on August 18, 2011, 18:12:28 PM: Anybody know how to get an iPod touch to use a Turkcell dongle for wi-fi connection? The dongle is how we connect the laptop in Turkey but the dongle doesn't broadcast it's network name. Didn't have an iPod when we were last there, so don't know if this will connect to the dongle automatically. Thanks, John

Post by: Scunner on August 18, 2011, 18:39:00 PM: I'm pretty sure you can't connect an iphone/ipod touch to an internet service provided via USB dongle.

Post by: Stan on August 18, 2011, 19:27:42 PM: Brilliant! thanks for that, it makes you think what more is available that people don't know about.
Title: BBC ITV Ch4 & 5 etc FREE on Iphone Works Anywhere!
Post by: TheBruces187 on August 18, 2011, 20:10:48 PM: Thanks Scunner. That fits with what happens with a Kindle. That doessn't work with the dongle, either. As the late Robert Robinson would say " Ah, would that it did".

Post by: stoop on August 21, 2011, 09:09:26 AM: My son has it up and running in Thailand! He has his tv hooked up to his laptop via a cable and it works perfect. He's also paid $14 for the first month ( I guess to watch premium channels but I will find out).

He just told me he went out and recorded MOTD - evidently you can just press and it will record any channel for you.

Might just gamble with an apple tv box if some of the foreign channels show footy.

So you just hook your iPhone up to the tv with a hd cable from the iPhone? Sounds cheaper than apple tv. How much did it cost?

Post by: Scunner on December 15, 2011, 15:43:21 PM: Actually stoop...I can't find it now?
Title: BBC ITV Ch4 & 5 etc FREE on Iphone Works Anywhere!
Post by: stoop on December 15, 2011, 17:27:59 PM: I still have it but can't find it on apple store. I have a feeling it's now merged with tvcatchup which is very similar but you have to log in every time you want to use it. Good quality though.

Post by: nichola on December 15, 2011, 20:57:19 PM: I followed link that you originally posted Keith but couldn't see any obvious next steps and I had a good look around the pages and clicked on anything that looked like it might take me somewhere etc...

I knew I should have done this when you first posted it...
