    Could do it last year - mirror from iPad to Apple TV.

    Can’t do it now!

    Yeah - straight to Apple TV, nice and easy. Didn’t try other ways.

    I’ve a lightning to hdmi lead which I might try at half time, but can’t see it working either.

    That’s what miffs me about it.
    I dug out an old android box I had but the new app needs newer version of android.
    I have sent for a cheap box off ebay about 16 quid (got 4 quid discount).
    I was hoping it would be here today.

    HDMI was the only thing that worked for me in previous seasons - I'm also surprised that you got a mirror to work, because I never could!

    Can't see how they'd block HDMI - doesn't the OS just pick it up as a second monitor?

    I can mirror on my Mac through airplay if using a browser as opposed to the app.

    That's how I watch it on Silk browser and never had buffering problems. Last season when I watched the first few on my tablet (when I didn't know the desktop issue to make it work on TV) I got buffering a few times a half needing to refresh.

    Yes, always worked from iPad/iPhone to Apple TV via mirroring/Airplay etc.

    Doesn’t work now - just sound only.

    Tried lightning to HDMI and that doesn’t work now either. Annoying.

    Not tried my iMac, but will have to if this continues in other games.
