I need to ask a question with sky glass and sky stream

I was watching Wentworth on my Sky Glass and wanted to continue it upstairs on Sky Stream, but it doesn’t pick up the series properly. Is there a feature that lets me continue watching upstairs from where I left off downstairs, like the “continue watching” feature on Sky Q? I’d also really like AirPlay to be available on Sky Stream, just like it works with Sky Q mini boxes, so everything feels more compatible and easy to use.

Hi @trefor-parr 

 

there is a continue watching rail on glass / stream homescreen (which unfortunately excludes Disney atm)

 

or go to your playlist and select the show and it will play from where you left off

Your Playlist and continue watching rail will be the same on all your Sky Glass and Sky Stream boxes.

 

The continue watching rail  for some, we have seen can take some minutes or more to refresh.

The only way to force it is to do a settings restart:

Go to Settings>Systems Management>Resets & Updates
Select Restart device
Your Sky Stream puck will perform a reboot. It will take a few minutes to complete.

 

There is no airplay ability on Sky Stream.

You can use airplay on the TV connected (if your TV also has the airplay facility) to your Sky Puck.

 

If your TV also does not have any airplay facility, you could purchase a Roku, that do have airplay capability.

You would then add the Roku to a spare hdmi port and use the airplay via the Roku seamlessly on your TV.

The Continue watching feature is completely hit and miss for most people. 

 

Shows don't appear at all.

A series you've finished, a previous episode appears.

A programme you've finished shows as not finished. 

 

Just a few examples for us.
