Traveling and don't have my MacBook. Can't believe I've never tried this before but can you login to Hibs TV on a mobile device? I can't even log in, never mind watch / hear anything. The login button does nothing, but the "forgot details" button works.

Once you've typed in your username and password hit enter in the password box not the log in button.

Right, but I can't even login to the site. I know I'm a little early but checking things out before I get up at the crack of dawn. :)

Bingo! Thanks. The login button must be a distraction.

HibsTV works with Flash so no iPhone or iPad will work with it. Unless something has changed of late.

Yeah first time I tried it on the iPad I was angrily bashing the login button and swearing when my wife picked up the iPad and first time logged in for me, rolled her eyes and went back to her book!

I'm hoping something has changed. I can watch the Dumbarton highlights but that is probably just a video rather than flash.

It works fine now, I watched the Dumbarton game on it, as well as several others this season

Works brilliantly on my ipad. HD pic. The trick to signing in is not to click "login" on the site, but to press "Return" on the popup keyboard you use to type the info.

Thanks GG. Now I can wake up tomorrow safe in the knowledge that I'll be able to watch Hibs through my hangover.

I can't log in via the log in button however if I watch a preview video then after 20 seconds it asks for log in details and I can get in that way.

I use Tunnelbear.
Free but only limited data - 500MB I think .
very cheap to upgrade though .
lt was enough data for me to watch second half of cup tie v Inverness which was shown on BBC

Can uou? Never knew that. I often use it to watch highlights on the BBC website but iirc it stopped working once when I tried that.

Watch most games on iPad or iPhone without a problem at all. Screen a bit small on phone but can tell what is going on. Strange riding in a car in the middle of the Arizona desert watching live football from Easter Road on my phone.

I tried it more than once on my travels and it failed but it could have been hotel throttling to limit video bandwidth hogging. I thought it was the lack of Flash because that's what it uses on Mac computers with OS X.

No problems today although couldn't see why it was a red card instead of a yellow.

That might be different. Most of the live feeds such as Hibs TV are okay once you get the location established initially.
