C5 catch up on old Samsung TV

We have a perfectly functional Samsung Smart TV

UE40H5500
but it has the 'old' C5 catch up (Demand5) and not the new My5

I've tried to update the software, but it says no update available.
Is there a way round it?

I *think* we have a Now TV box knocking round somewhere, would My5 be on that?

Here is a list of the supported Samsung models for My5:

Your TV does not appear on this list so it is not supported.

If you have Sky TV there is a selection of Channel 5 content in the Catch-Up TV section, otherwise it should be on your Now TV box, if not you can add it from the App Store.

I watch Channel 5 catchup / Demand 5 via the Now TV box and it works well.

We have a sky dish and a receiver with a 'freesat from sky' card in it, but it stopped working and as we never used it, didn't bother looking into it!

Will maybe investigate the Now box ...

Yes, unfortunate, according to Chanel 5 website My5 is not available on Samsung TV 2014-17.

I don't know but if you looking for new satellite box, try first looks for this website: https://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk/
