    Eleven Sports Live Football Advice Please

    Eleven Sports showing 2 games free of charge each weekend from Serie A and La Liga through facebook. I have a Samsung Smart TV but asks me to get Flash Player to view. Unfortunately it wont download on my TV. Any suggestions ?
    I know i could stream via my Tablet but dont have the HDMI cable & hoped to watch without buying one. Cheers

    I've got an lg smart tv and it doesn't support flash, I presume Samsung doesn't either, can't you cast your tablet screen to your tv,no need for hdmi cable

    Go to screen mirror on your Samsung then share the tablet with the TV via the wireless 👍

    They were doing a free trial for a week or just under during the golf.. not sure if still available, if so you could try it out first. Easy to cancel your subscription without payment, unlike some other products which make you phone up to do so.

    So, signed up to the free trial and will consider the annual pass, if they get a tie up to either Chromecast or Sky.

    Lazio 1 up on Napoli just now and the Lazio shirt maker and sponsor look awfully familiar...

    Download TV cast (Samsung) on both your phone/tablet and smart tv. Connect the two and hey presto. It worked perfectly for me last week.

    Nope. Broadcast by streaming over the internet only. Seems like an expanding company however.

    Thanks for quick reply. Just looked at their website, not paying £50 a year for that.

    Watched the first 2 la Liga games last night on my PC.
    HD quality picture and zero buffering. Way, way better than either sky Go or Virgin TV anywhere apps were on the computer.

    Their coverage of the USPGA golf was first class last week as well (especially when it was free 😁)

    Unfortunately I'm not a golf fan so that is no good to me.

    Bit pish. I enjoy watching the Spanish football but I can't be arsed with either watching it on a laptop or plugging my laptop into the tele to watch it. I know it's lazy but it's put me off getting it.

    Their website FAQs state they're still duscussing showing it through Sky, BT, Virgin etc. Also hope to have Chromecast support at some stage.

    Not what the papers were saying. Cut out on the winning putt, plus other countless times with poor analysis. But suppose if it was free you can’t complain. They won’t have it next year going by the reports, USPGA were very unhappy with it.

    They seem to have loads of on demand stuff, and it's free to view. See here. Free 50 minute video of Andres Iniesta's career on there as well.

    I watched it for all four days and it didn’t cut out once. It certainly didn’t cut out on the winning putt. I suspect it’s the papers making it up due to them being owned by the same person as sky.

    Whilst I haven't watched much of their golf coverage, I have watched some. The coverage of it I've seen + their football has been sufficiently good that I'd recommend their subscription package to everyone.
    I certainly haven't encountered any problems

    Neither have I. I haven’t watched that much on it to be fair, but what I have watched has been decent.
