Hi. Is it possible to steam TVNZ On Demand/3NOW(TV3) to a Xbox One without any other set top box/UHF or satellite device/computer? If not then what are the options for streaming TVNZ on demand and 3NOW to a TV without using a UHF antenna or satellite?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

There's a TVNZ Ondemand app available for the xbox. App is not the greatest, but works.

No 3now app for xbox as yet. Probably 'coming soon'.

Wouldn't it be cool if there was some software, maybe it was called XBOX Media Center, that let you play your own media and have add-on's and stuff from third party's.

sorry, not helpful. No idea, just couldn't resist.

Cheers. Is there any other way to stream TV3 to a TV without plugging in a laptop? I heard chromecast can't do it?

Has to be =/>gen4 though right (I have a gen3). Any solutions that don't require another expensive device? Anyone know about those dongle's that "turn your tv into a computer"...? Internet browser on the TV and stream from 3now.co.nz? Cheers

Is there an app that supports loading .m3u playlists?

You can use the 3now website through Edge browser on Xbox One. It works Ok.
