iFollow Problems?

[Sid Snot]

Evening Sidney, I can report all is well in the Box Hill area thanks. You can thank me later for the tech tip 🙂

I trust all is well in Snotsville?

ps. Get yourself a cheap wireless mouse and keyboard to use with the android box too - makes it much easier to use

I'll thank you now Gordon, even if it doesn't work 🙂!!

I have a wireless mouse so now I'll go back on Amazon for a wireless keyboard. Mrs S will kill me for buying this gear but I'll tell her it's better than the drum-kit I was planning on buying meself for Christmas.

Things in Snotsville are well but getting really colder (nothing new there). Good to read you're well - keep it up (or thereabouts 🙂).

Thanks for the advice .. could anyone suggest a device that is known to work?

Obviously I mean a cheap one, in line with PNE's purchasing policy, not me being a cheapskate!

Any Android TV box should work - there are loads on Amazon from 20-30 quid, just choose one with decent user reviews. Plug it into you tv, connect to your Wi-fi and download the PNE iFollow app from the google play store - the job’s a good’un.

I don't use ifollow but there's quite a bit on the clubs youtube channel including 2-3 min highlights of most (all?) games and a bit more other guff.

Works a treat on my amazon stick thingy and, I imagine, on smart tvs with the youtube app. Decent pic quality too.

Cheers Gordon et al... we'll see if Santa brings me an android box!

4g coverage is a bit patchy in the Serengeti.

Gord, I believe your tip worked. I'll let you know more on Saturday at half time 😀.

I was estimating my completion date for getting this little box connected and up and running to be the second week of May 2019 😉.

Gracias, amigo :thumbsup:

Okay so come on be honest, is this I follow all it's cracked up to be or not? I've just found out that my offer for a property in France has been accepted and within 8-10 weeks I should be in France, I always wanted it to be before the end of March for obvious reasons ( Brexit etc ). It's going to be a whole new ball game for me from now on, but I must get my PNE fix somehow. Anybody live in France now? and use I follow, I mostly seem to read that its poor sound or poor picture or quite a long way behind real time etc. Is it going to be hell for me or will I be able to watch matches by streaming etc

hahahhahahaha that's from Paris Sid but I get your idea, to be honest Sid I can get a flight from Limoges to Manchester for £12.99 with Ryanair, it would be dead easy to do that, and then get the train to North End.

Ive tried to access by quite a powerful android box, will not work, spoke with ifollow online and they say its only compatible with mobile phones or tablet but not boxes. Are they bullshitting?

I've just downloaded the app on to my box. I must admit I haven't tried logging in yet but I got the match day screen and associated headings, no problem.

Ok. I'll try and play around with it again tonight. I did find the login (top left) but didn't try to watch anything. I'll get back to you later 🙂.

Good to hear Sidney, enjoy!

I’ve not had that problem at all... just checked mine and watching a match as I type. Presume you’ve tried rebooting etc?

yep reboot, uninstalled etc just keeps crashing on login.

No idea what would cause that unless you’re on a different version of the Android OS maybe? I don’t know how to check. Or try turning vpn off if you’ve got one and see if that works?

I’ve been watching it on my Android box for over a year and its never crashed like that. lets hope Sid’s works!

Is it working then? 🙂

 

[Sid Snot]

I'm convinced it will 😀. Update at half time on Saturday's MDT. The whole forum will now be forever in your debt as I won't be able to post on the MDT and watch simultaneously (you know, the old walk and chew gum at the same time scenario).
