Skyq Again

[jennyjoan]

My earphones became "uncharged" in the middle of my special song session. I tried to bring up SOUNDS on TV. What a palaver.

Look what is this craic that you have to enter special codes to get into iPLAYER, All4 etc etc - why all these codes.

No wonder I don't like SkyQ - I mean "picture this" how about older people trying to have to do this. Nah - not fair.

That is not SkyQ asking from r those codes, it's iPlayer, All4 etc and will be the same whichever provider you use

[jennyjoan]

ok Barry - message received but why do they want these codes

"[Q]: Why must I sign in to a BBC account to use BBC iPlayer?

[A]: Without signing in, you won't be able to play programmes or choose to benefit from the personalised features that BBC iPlayer offers including adding programmes for later, getting personalised recommendations, and picking up where you left off across your devices.

We need to understand more about what people are watching to ensure we are providing something for everyone. Up until now we could only tell how many people used BBC iPlayer, but having more data like age, gender and location will ensure we’re better serving all our audience. We share some of your personal information with TV Licensing to check if you are using BBC iPlayer and to keep their database up to date."

"[Q]: Why do I have to sign in to use the All 4 app?

[A]: To help us to find you shows you’ll love, we need you to sign in to All 4.
You’ll be able to pick up where you left off on any of your devices, add to a watch list and get recommendations suited to your tastes.
This simple sign-in will also ensure that all members of your household are watching shows suitable for their age.
We promise not to spam you with cute cat pics... but we will provide an All 4 just for you."

On e you have signed in to each player once you shouldn't need to do it again.
It will create an account on that player which will save programmes where you finished watching.
