Sky availability whilst on holiday

Hi, 

 

I think I know the answer to this but I will ask the question anyway. I currently have a Sky Q box. Is there anyway I can watch sky whilst on holiday in the uk by streaming etc?

Hi @Crickt+Fan 

With the Sky Go App you can stream some Sky content from the Internet

Re: Sky availability whilst on holiday

Sorry, but worded my question poorly. Is there any way to watch sky on a tv whilst on holiday? You cannot broadcast sky go onto a big screen by chrome cast etc I believe?

Watching Sky TV on a tv whilst on holiday

 Repeat of my earlier question but with better clarity. I currently have a Sky Q box. Is there anyway I can watch sky on an actual large TV whilst on holiday in the uk by streaming etc? As I understand the situation, Sky doesn't allow Sky Go to be broadcast by Chromecast etc but is there another way?

hi @Crickt+Fan 

 

I think one way is to use a laptop that has an HDMI Out (still using the SKY Go app)

I watch Sky Go on my 49" UHD TV via an Xbox Series X 🙂 Other games consoles can be used 🙂

If you haven't got a gaming console then another way to do this is via a laptop using an hdmi lead connected up to your tv from it,
