How to watch now tv box on 2 televisions

I have just ordered a now tv box and will be hooking it up to my tv in bedroom. Is it possible to watch content in the other tv downstairs at same time? Otherwise using 2 devices
How would this work. Would you need to take remote downstairs to use?
Thanks. A bit new to this. Getting movies for £15 for 6 months so giving it a go.

The NowTV service has a device Limit of 4 and a streaming to devices limit of 2 at the same time...

This 2 devices means any 2 of those 4 including the PC you can play content on.

 

If you want Dual TVs running seperate films on NowTV. that requires a second box/device.

If you want a HDTV in the other room to display the same film for the cheapest way, that requires a HDMI splitter and a long second HDMI cable... To send the IR remote signals to another room requires a IR reciever and IR blaster set up...

 

All these extra things can be purchased from electronics retailers...

Its just cheaper to get another cloned Ruko NowTV box.. for £9.99 others allready got 3 boxes... but can only watch nowTV on 2 at the same time..

You need to enter your NowTV account details not your Sky account.
NowTV is powered by Sky but not connected.

@Anonymous User you can unplug the box and move it to any other TV, but you might find it easier to pickup a second one.

Welcome to the community.

NOW TV is a completely separate service to Sky TV subscriptions, you don't need to be a Sky TV subscriber to continue using NOW TV, but you will need to purchase movies, sports and entertainment passes on the NOW TV service if you want to watch that content.

@Anonymous User do you mean if you cancel your ents/movies pass, or an actual Sky dish subscription? If it's the passes as long as you have a valid card on file the box will continue to work for the other apps like iPlayer and ITV Player.

Hi. Sorry to bother you but I can't get now TV through my Xbox one anymore. I've moved home.

I get a message saying ..my " internet or home network connection is stopping NowTv from working as it should"

 

I've tried the linked 'help' but can't find a solution. You are my only hope.

 

Every other app works fine , so I know the Xbox is connected. However I'm having to use wi-fi. Could that be the problem?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Keep safe and well
