Had been looking at binning our firestick and getting a Roku streamer as we tend to watch a fair few youtube channels and the firestick is lacking since they took the app away. Spotted this tvplayer Plus app while browsing that would give me Eurosport - the only reason we still have a sky subscription, timely as the cheap deal we were on has just ended again.

Anyone using the paid service care to offer an opinion?

Looking at the channels about the only thing the kids would miss is Disney Jnr, but they have netflix and amazon prime anyway to fill the gap.

Thread bump. Does anyone subscribe to the TVPlayer Premium? https://tvplayer.com

I don't do Sky, just Freeview, so this does look ok for the extra channels compared to Amazon Prime add on channels or NowTV etc.

I used to briefly when I was inbetween sky and NowTV. my biggest issue with it was that there are some licensing agreements that dont allow live streaming of some programs (such as Ellen which my other half loves, and is exempt from live stream or catchup outside the US).

Didnt have any issues with buffering or frame rates though.

I don’t use the Plus but I use the free channels on my AppleTV. I’ve found recently though that the streaming quality seems to have reduced so I revert to watching channels through their own apps.

I preferred TVplayer as I could just flick between channels.
