Hi

I have set my VM Box to record Copa Del Rey Real Madrid vs Barcelona on BTSport1 2night via the VM TV Control App on my smart phone. Will I be able to watch that recording on my phone tomorrow via the TV Go App?

If you set the recording via the Virgin TV Control app, you have a V6 and will be able to watch it at home via the Virgin TV Control app. You can’t watch recordings away from your home WiFi.

If you are at home, then you may be able stream the recording on your phone via the TV Control (for TiVo/V6) or TV Go (for TV360) - often BT Sport is one of the channels to not allow this, but you can try.

If you are out of home. you can stream the live broadcast channel on your phone via TV Go.

Hi,

 

Yes it read not allowed to download or watch away from home wifi. I have unlim mobile data so was disappointed at this.

Yes, but it does not allow me to download or watch the recording on my phone via mobile data which is a disappointment

It’s a TV rights holder/broadcaster restriction, so there is nothing that you or VM can do about it.

Can u watch it on your phone out and about if you download it off home wifi after recording?

Hi @MarkH28 

As long as the recording can be downloaded then this is correct 🙂

Kind regards.
