Hi mate, what TV do you have? it may have a sat connection and freest epg. If not then a freesat box shouldn't be to expensive (I am assuming you have the none Q version of sky)
cheers
Tv player app
Hi, thanks for reminding me, yes it does have freesat hd, unfortunately I have sky q, I’ve tried in the hope it still works but it picks up all the channels in the epg but when you select any channel it says no signal?
U will need to switch the lnb mate, sky q uses a FBC tuner. U can get hybrids but it needs to be specified when the install was done. Fortunately a compatible lnb is very cheap and getting it swapped should be cheaper than fitting an aerial (which I know u can’t do) u just unplug the connectors unclip the old lnb put the new one in and refscrew the connectors. Depending on dish location and whether you feel comfortable u could do it yourself. If not it will be a 5 min job for a tv/aerial guy.
I have the normal atv and have used tvplayer, it ok as a fallback but picture is not the best, I also found motion seemed a bit off
Cheers
Just going through this myself, bought a new lnb for £12 on amazon. Haven't fitted it yet though...Thanks, I’ll see how much an lnb swap will cost
You say you cannot put an aerial up yet your house has an ugly dish attached. I doubt the owner would mind, also does the aerial need to mounted on the roof?
Is there not an aerial socket by the TV with a connection to the loft?
If you had an aerial, you could use a HD HomeRun device which plugs into your network and TV Aerial. Then on the ATV buy the app called Channels, this allows for Freeview TV to played on the ATV.
Channels — Live TV, anywhere in your home
then connect it with

It does read really good. Do you know if you can get a freesat version of it or a similar device?
I don’t think there are any official FreesatSolutions mate (Freesat is just the epg really). I don’t think hdhomerun do a dvb s2 but there are other products, vbox would be one. U could of course build a server and fit tuners. Or us a low powered nas by synology/netgear etc. Enigma 2 sat receivers will also do it, u can even get e2 receivers with FBC tuners so that would not need to be changed. Problem with all this is whilst they all do have an epg with various capability’s they do take a bit of messing to set up, also the epg is probably not as wife friendly as say a dedicated freesat solution. All the above though will work with an Apple TV either through native apps or as a preinstalled addon within mrmc (kodi)
I’m not sure if I’m missing something given the negative responses but it is possible to get live tv on the ATV albeit streamed via the TVPlayer app. It’s got all free view channels and a few more that can be accessed via a paired tier. Further, if you are up for some DNS trickery, Swiss app Zattoo streams the UK main channels as well as a bunch of continental channels. Good for a laugh that. But anyways. Yeah, you can stream lots of live tv in the UK on the Apple TV.Is it possible to get live uk channels on ATV? Thanks

You're not - it's not provided. The only C4 app is the C4 News app.Am I being blind - where is the 4 app?
