Thanks for posting all the 7 and 9 streams. I’m a novice and got all these streams to work on a iPad. :blush: Just wondering is there any USA streams or no chance of that.

Awesome work. Maybe there should be another thread or wiki created for all the stream links…

Here’s a google sheets I made.

And for those on Android devices Sony’s Video app (which you can get here) works great with the live streams.

On now during cricket

As expected no streaming for cricket. I guess free to air does not apply to free to air on internet. :slightly_smiling:

Yep, just because a network has the broadcast rights to a sporting event doesn’t mean they’ll be able to stream it online because digital rights are done separately. Same thing will happen with the NRL coverage.

Wonder if netflix could argue if nine shows a tv show they have the online too is that a breach. Sport seems to have different rule, maybe because its live and probably cricket australia makes a lot of money selling the online rights. All these government laws for Anti-siphoning dont apply for online streaming. I know in India I believe it is free to watch cricket online due to government policy.

Though to optus’s credit, cricket I believe is now free to watch in an app. I am sure NRL will be different.

No problems mate. Glad I came across the initial release by apsattv here. I find 7’s recordings work straight away in my editor (VideoReDo TVSuite), but I have to parse Nine’s recordings through a muxer as video and audio doesn’t sync. Otherwise it all works well!

In case of NRL, 9Now could air Melbourne’s schedule (factuals, AFL Footy Show then NRL Footy Show on Thursdays, and repeat movies on Fridays).

I am pretty sure 9 bought the digital rights to the 3 games they show in the new tv deal which kicks in this year after being brought forward so I would say the NRL will be playing on 9now.

Do we really think that Nine won’t be allowed to livestream The Footy Show (of either code)? If they can get away with highlights on news bulletins…

I don’t know why this is happening, but I live in WA but 9Now thinks I am living in the ACT. I am not running a VPN,either.

I am sure Nine can livestream The NRL Footy Show, but will have to find other programs to fill in the gap when Thursday night NRL is on TV. It just can’t leave the two hour period blank.

I have the same thing.
I’m in Townsville in North QLD and 9Now is showing that I’m in the ACT as well.

Looks like I am wrong about the NRL.

Nine will have the streaming rights for the National Rugby League from 2018 when the ­recently signed $1.8 billion broadcast deal kicks in.

But parts of that deal were brought forward for the next two seasons and Nine will attempt to expedite its control of the NRL streaming rights, which are now held by Telstra.

Users will be asked to login once, using a Facebook login or an email and password to enable the service to deliver relevant content, news and special offers, as well as user benefits such as being able to resume play on any video content across any device or platform.

A special bonus for users will include an early release of the first episode of the latest series of The Farmer Wants a Wife, from Sunday at 6.00pm until the launch of the program on Monday, February 1, at 8.35pm.Andrew Backwell, Nine’s Managing Director, Programming and Production, said: “We’re excited to exclusively launch episode one of The Farmer Wants a Wife on the new 9Now platform on Sunday night, and I’m looking forward to tracking our audience across their different devices and giving them more of what they want in 2016.

“9Now gives us the platform, the distribution and the analytics to reach and understand our audience even more than we do today. It’s been a great collaborative effort across the Nine business to launch 9Now and we all look forward to our audience live streaming and catching up on our great content.”

9Now has launched on web, IOS, Android and HBBTV, with other connected services to follow, including Telstra TV, Apple TV, Chromecast, Sony, Samsung, LG, PlayStation, Xbox and Fetch TV.

Mac compatibility? And also I wonder if it would work outside of Australia so I have to use Boot Camp.
