KAYO

[LP]

Ta for that info....we had Foxtel but it wasnt worth it so I canned it but I do miss the sport and the new season/s of " Outlander" .
Was thinking of " Foxtel now" but Kayo has trumped that idea for the sport.....did read a few reviews and it is laggy on ADSL/ADSL2 but no probs on NBN....

Isn't Kayo run by Foxtel?

Foxtel Now has had very poor market response, Kayo feels like a respin of the same service. I think the tactic might be to sign up people through Kayo at lower rates before the content or service eventually merge.

According to the website, yes you can.

Yep, after I posted I decided I probably can look myself.
I see some mention of only being able to cast to Chromecast ultra.
Has anyone had any experience of trying to cast to a regular old chromecast?

Its the same content, but a superior GUI. The split screen options, and picture in picture stuff is a level above.

I think Foxtel has a stake in it but it is a separate entity.

What is the screen size? Is it full size, or reduced to 7 inch as the AFL one is.

I use it on my laptop and HDMI it to the TV, thats full screen. My TVs browser doesn't support it for some reason (TV is probably 3 years old).

Do we know how much afl will be on it?

Thanks for posting guys...  although this is a Foxtel streaming service, it’s not branded as Foxtel... i’d also imagine that there is less chance of an Optus-style World Cup debacle as they are not going to be exclusively showing live events?

I’d be interested to see how it goes when one of the Foxtel exclusive cricket matches is on... and what is the picture quality like on a TV?

You can get three logins for $35 a month, so we each pay $35 every three months. Handed the reigns over to my 18 year old, who was doubtful that it would lag ect. Bought a chromecast and he thinks it's brilliant. AFAIK anything you can view on your phone can be played through the chromecast. Actually will have more sports than foxtel. GOODBYE Foxtel as I can watch most horse races through the betting sites which can be played through the Chromecast

It has all the foxtel sports channels, including AFL channel.

So that means, ALL OF IT.

If there are ever 2 games at once, foxtel just shoves one of the games onto one of the fox sports channels, so you will be able to catch every single game live.
