Lord have mercy - this is so much work! Thanks for telling me though - that would've been hard to accept for a 5:30am start!

I have seen talk elesewhere of needing to get a US E-mail address so as to be able to get a login for NBC, but I suspect it also needs one or two other techie things to be done on your PC.”

I´m very interested in this too... thanks..

Got dns here and i am still good..

There's no pattern to PLP's banning of accounts. Consequently, I think they're simply going to ban a few people every now and then, to prove to the Premier League that they're taking this seriously. Ultimately, if they really want to weed out all of us, they'll be able to. I have only used PLP with SmartDNS, and haven't had a problem, but I don't use it all the time anyway.
I rotate between PLP, NBC and Starsport, and am fortunate enough to have all of them air playing well to my AppleTV.
Feel free to PM me if you'd like a hand, and I'll see what I can do.

If you have NBC, why do you need streaming at all? Doesn't it mean you have the TV station? Or are you sharing an account or outside the US?

Do you ever use the PLP website or just the app? I only use the app too.

I assure you i have no attitude but the way you carry on like a VPN is the be all and end all and that should you use one then the almighty lord will bless you is tedious and boring.

It is you that makes out a VPN is the most amazing thing in the world and should you use one then you will be fine .

Its wrong information and has been proven many times on here to not be the case .

When I get banned from a service I'll agree with you. Until then, I don't. But thanks for your concern anyway. Now... PLP or NBC today, decisions decisions.

Few questions about NBC. Can you airplay from an iPad? If so, whats the quality like?

Anyone on here who's now a 'sneaky user' of Plp managed to get their subscription reactivated? Don't know whether to log in and try the chat option on there and give it a try. If youve managed it, can you send me a PM?

Speaking of attitude, that's not really necessary, is it....

Yes, you can airplay from an iPad but it also depends on how your NBC subscription is setup.
My understanding is that NBC is usually part of the subscription packages offered by the various cable operators in the US. As a result, there are two ways you can access NBCSN:
1) directly, via the NBC SN app on iOS/Addroid
2) via the app from you cable operator (Comcast, TWC, etc.)

Comcast's Xfinity TV Go app is supposed to be very good, but I don't have my sub with them, I have it with TWC, so I use the NBC SN app. It's difficult to say which is better because I haven't tried both, but NBC SN works ver well for me... I'd say it was around the 3750kbps that Xfinity gets, but I haven't measured it.

One thing to note, the NBC SN app airplay's fine for me, but I have a jailbroken device with a few tweaks installed. I'm not sure if the NBCSN app allows you to airplay natively. Perhaps someone else can answer this?

A heads up for any of you guys using NBC, there's now an XBMC addon for it, I'm watching the Stoke - QPR match through it now with a superb full screen 720p picture

You can find the addon in the video addons section in the forums at xbmc.org

Don't think it's out yet... They haven't mentioned anything on Twitter, at least.

I don't see why not, there's other XBMC addons for legitimate US Sports services like NBC which have lasted years, XBMC is only scraping the website and transferring the stream to its video player, you still need a legitimate US cable login for it to work.

Yeah its 720p, XBMC reports the video stream as 1280 x 720

it needs a VPN or smartdns service, try using the file from the link posted in post #15 in the thread at xbmc.org to cure your script errors
