Hi
I'm trying to use my Apple TV to view my sky sports , I've got a sky go account set up on my iPad I've set up airplay/mirroring , when I try & watch it I can hear the program on my tv but the app stays on screen saying hdmi not supported so I can't watch only hear .
Am I doing something wrong ?
Is there a way around this ?
Thanks

Sky have blocked AirPlay from working with their app.
Sky have blocked AirPlay from working with their app.
So they have the option built into the screen then don't let you use it , typical sky , not happy
They aren't alone, many broadcasters do this.
Can you air play / mirror the paid for sky sports tv app through the ATV to a hd TV ?
No.
No way round it then , looks like ATV for sale

Please if you can-I just purchased Apple TV --the NBC App from my IPad will Airplay an introductory commercial but will not play the video portion of the program I selected, just audio, do you think it is being blocked?
Thank you
I would assume so, I'm not in the US to test it, but would think this is the case.
If I pay for the sky sports mobile app for ipad £6 month can I mirror that to the ATV
Nope, that is blocked by Sky as well. Note that the £6 (actually £4.99) monthly subscription charge in that app only gives you live access to the Sky Sports News channel - you do not get Sky Sports 1-4. The only way you will get those live channels in an app is if you have a TV subscription to them (but you still can't mirror them to the ATV)
Using sky go & AirPlay mirroring
