BBC I-Player on your television
8 Answers
I use I-Player quite a lot on my laptop and have seen the recent TV adverts about watching it on your TV. They mentioned needing a set top box-does this include the Sky Box? Will there be a channel included specifically for BBC I-Player does anyone know? If not I'm not too worried as I don't mind watching via my laptop but would be interested to know what it will entail.

That depend upon what output and input options are available on your laptop and TV respectively. I suggest trying a new post, telling us what ports there are on your laptop and what input sockets there are on your TV. (Modern laptops and TVs are likely to only need a fairly cheap cable whereas older devices might also require a gizmo for converting the signal).
