Well excited! Can't wait to get home and test on big screen

It looks very impressive :)

I've been comparing Sky to it a ton, Sky quality makes me want to cry compared.

fully agree mate. Even on a Sammy Note4 screen, the quality is excellent!

The little things make the biggest difference.

Me too! Though Airplay should work from the phone?

6 months? I saw "a few months" I'd take that as 2 or 3 to 6

Yup, in the coming months its due. a fixed date has not been put on it.

in the meantime, it's on the 3 main platforms.

Browsers
Andriod
iOS

Casting via Chromecast and Airplay are both supported, so casting to your ATV will work fine.

It makes sense to limit applications at launch so the bugs and anything platform wide can be adjusted prior to going broad.

LFCNZ: Using IPhone app, seems pretty good so far.

I couldn’t find a schedule though for what’s on in the app?

May have missed it?

At this stage just interested at looking at the NBA TV schedule to see what live games are being shown.

Same boat, I can't see what live NBA games are going to be shown, which makes it a bit useless for anybody beyond a casual viewer.

@LFCNZ @D.W can i confirm you two are both iOS users?

Content is showing on andriod and web, i dont have an iOS device on had to validate personally.

this has been fed back to the spark sports folk to have a look.

I'm using browser on PC.

If I switch to the NBA TV channel (which I can only access from the spark sport homepage, if I choose 'NBA' from the dropdown menu, it seems I cannot access the NBA TV channel without going back to the homepage), I can see the schedule.

However, all I can see is that at 10:00 PM tonight, there is 2 hours of NBA Basketball, but I have no idea what teams are playing in that game.

And... You have to give a credit card for the free trial.
No, just no.

That's annoying.
I was hoping to be able to link it to my Spark account

Done. No difference. This is what I see (I'm assuming the 12:30PM game is a live game):

I'm also unclear as to how I'll be able to catch up on recent games on demand. There doesn't seem to be anywhere currently that would facilitate this (in either browser or Android app).

Scroll down to what exactly? I see a number of headings (highlights, from the vault etc.), none of which cater for live game scheduling.
