4OD app is one clever piece of kit.

I was watching an episode of TBBT on catchup, on my Hudl, when I went to plug it into my HD TV.

As soon as I plugged it in, the programme stopped, and I got an on screen message, from 4OD, telling me it doesn't allow watching on a TV. :(

    I'm guessing that Windows 10 will also be able to block HDMI use of streaming content per the media providers rules. Has anyone tried 4OD with a Windows 10 tablet (even via a web browser)?

    I love 4OD on my youview box - it tries so desperately to prevent you skipping adverts it often crashes out the entire box. I really enjoy the fact that if I want to catch up on the last 15 mins of a program on 4OD I have to sit through 3 sets of adverts first because the damn thing can't tell that I'm skipping ahead to the last 15 mins so queues up 3 delightful sets of adverts for be to sit through.
