Rudolf's Mate Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 watching M'well v Celtic just now with Fox Soccer Plus on bottom right of the screen. They are buying this from Sky as it is Crock o'shit & Wanger commentating. Question is, if a pub was to show this what is the legalities? Fox are an American company and not interested surely. Sky can only complain if they are showing Sky Sports. A landlady down here (Portsmouth) done exactly that and was taken to court. She was using something like a Greek satellite service however it was completely legal in Greece. Can't remember the exact details however she won her case. Might not have been Greece either but they reckoned this would open the floodgates. Think Mania is a bit different though as they haven't purchased or have a contract to show the games.

And it insisted it was ?committed to visiting every licensed premises reported by other publicans and/or organisations for illegally showing Sky? and had ?made arrangements to visit hundreds of pubs each week in towns and cities across the UK this season?. George Lawson, head of commercial piracy at Sky Business, said: ?We?re committed to protecting Sky customers who are unfairly losing business due to this illegal activity and these cases are just the latest in our efforts to ensure they are not short-changed. ?Orders like these demonstrate the seriousness of fraudulently screening TV programmes through the large penalty applied, but also through the order to fund advertising, which we hope will help to highlight the consequences of televising Sky?s content illegally.? my point being though, if you are showing Fox Sports, can Sky legitimately prosecute? ie dont show the ones with BT & Sky logos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australis Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I'm guessing you've tried going directly to BT section and it's doing this? Try accessing the calendar and finding something that's on BT and try selecting it from there. Or if you're doing it this way already try going in via the actual BT section. I had similar the other week with it not working in one but it was in the other. Thanks again Rudolphs mate. I used the calendar section as you said and it worked a treat, just watched the Gunners thrash the Hammers 1-5 Thanks for helping me out again Regards Jimmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Fusion doesn't seem to be letting me add Exodus, nothing happens when I click on it...) What other addons? Looking for movies, mostly American TV shows (House of Cards, Hannibal, quite a bit of the Netflix originals stuff been enjoyed, so that kinda stuff). And I'll want sport. All advice kindly received! Just getting used to navigating it. Is it just about learning where the good stuff is?? Anyone got kids they let use it?

Phoenix and Exodus will give you every TV show and Movie you want. If you're looking for Live TV and Sport, I'd suggest Ultimatemania. However, can't stress enough - watch youtube videos explaining how it works. I consider myself very IT literate, but never got round to understanding Kodi until a couple of weeks ago. All I use now.
