Sky Player for Xbox 360 - Lots of errors when stre...

Whenever I'm watching Sky Player I keep getting buffer messages saying "Your internet speed has changed.  You can change the quality of your video by pressing RB or LB while watching TV".
It always defaults to "High" because of my (supposedly) fast internet connection, but I always have to reduce it to Medium, or even Low last night.
I'm also getting a ton of problems trying to watch BT Vision on demand (picture constantly freezing, stopping, buffering etc).
I've ran another speed test this morning to find out what is going on, and I suddenly have no QoS on my line any more;

With my old 20cn line I had absolutely no issues with Sky Player running on full resolution, so I'm a little bit distressed that my supposedly better connection now causes it to run so badly.
Any chance of a mod taking a look at my account to see if anything can be done about this?  I've asked before but haven't had anyone reply yet.

You connection appears to be fine for streaming.
A couple of things to check.
How is your Xbox connected to your Hub, if wireless then tried wired.
Use the following program http://www.metageek.net/ select downloads and choose Inssider. Download to your PC and check for any other wireless signals, find out the channels they are broadcasting on and change your HUB if it conflicts with any. Note this will only help if your are connected wirelessly.
If your problem is not resolved with any of these, then it can only be down to possibly Sky, they have been heavily pushing Sky player and perhaps their servers are overloaded.

  • Sky go on xbox 360 - video playout error

    My sky go app randomly stopped working the other week. And hasn't worked since. I've always watched it on my Xbox 360 and never had this issue before. I've tried Clearing the cache, deleting and reinstalling the app but i'm still getting the same problem. When i try watching live tv on the sky app or watch demand it says:"Sorry, Sky Video Playout service isn't available right now. Please try again later. For more information, go to www.xbox.com/status" I'm out of idea's on how i'm supposed to fix it. I have sky extra and the device is still added onto my sky go devices. I'd appreciate the help. Thanks

    I have sorted it!   when i went on to storage settings, the internal drive needed formatting.  The app had been saved onto the external drive.  Any video (TV) apps need to be saved on internal drive!! I reformatted the drive then deleted the app off the external drive, before reinstalling it onto the internal drive.  Did this for Netflix too which had also stopped working properly. Hope this helps and solves your problem too

  • Sky App on XBox 360

    Hi, I'm trying to register Sky on my XBox 360 and I get an error message telling me 'You need to be Sky TV customer with Sky Go EXTRA to watch Sky on your console'. I have Sky Go, not Sky Go Extra and the Sky website tells me that this is sufficient to register 2 devices. I don't understand why it is not working. Many thanks, Lowri.

    Like the message says, to use Sky Go on Xbox360 (or TV from Sky on the PS3/PS4) you need to subscribe to Sky Go Extra.
    Sky Go Extra is £5 per month (or free to multiscreen subscribers) and allows 2 additional registered devices (total of 4, any two in use at one time), downloads for offline viewing and console devices.
    It has been this way for some time now, the only "free" devices are PC, Mac, Android and iOS devices.

  • Amazon Q&A - E3200 - Default Nat Type for xbox 360 and ps3

    the nat type for xbox 360 and ps3, what is it when you set the router up out of the box? are the nat types open moderate or strict

    Hi there. It actually depends if the gaming consoles ports are not blocked by your ISP. Moderate NAT type limits your connection playing online games, Strict does not allow you any connection at all while Open allows you to play with everyone online. Have you had a router before with Open NAT on the gaming consoles? Try to check without the router by going directly to the modem and see if your NAT type is open or strict or moderate. If ever modem is fine and it is the router not working right you can port forward ports on the router. I found these usual ports online, for XBOX live:TCP and UDP ports:  80-88, 3074-3074, 4267-4269. For PS380, 443, 3478, 3479, 3480, 5223, 8080 and UDP: 3478, 3479.

  • My TC display a lot of errors when I tried to config some AirPort Express as a repeater

    My TC display a lot of errors when I tried to config some AirPort Express as a repeaters.
    I have some AirPort Express as a repeaters for my wireless SSID in my TC. But they doesn't work, some times there are not exist in my AirPort Utility, and some times I need to reconfig those again.
    I can't use AirPlay in my repeaters, and can't use my Apple TV eigther.
    Really it is a desaster.
    The idea is very good, have a TC with your hard disk, have one computer with iTunes, and repeat all your music, photos and videos to all your home through your apple TV and your AirPort Express repeaters.
    BUT IT DOESN'T WORK
    The TC crashes every 10 minutes, the AirPort utility doesn't find all of AirPort Express repeaters, iTunes doesn's find the repeaters and Apple TV eigther.
    Is anybody has a solution?
    May be someone had a similar problem.

    I did all.
    But still having problems:
    TC still crashes, but less times per day, it blocks the Wireless access and need to restart; AirPorts Express don't repeat the signal as well as I need, some of them just don't repeat the signal at all; AirPlay in iTunes some times has all the repeaters (8) and Apple TV (2) for send the music, photos and videos, and some times doesn't has all of them.
    And, with the 5.6 Utility and fireware 7.5.2 (in TC)* I lost "Back to my Mac" to TC; "Back to my Mac" still working to my iMac but lost it to my TC. (I use a TC hard disk as a personal cloud in my MacBook Pro)
    *I just put the firmware 7.5.2 in TC, all my repeaters have firmware 7.6.1, should I need put the 7.5.2 on the repeaters too?
    Do you have an other issue to solve this?
    I insist, THE IDEA IS VERY GOOD, have all your music, photos and videos in all your home through AirPort Express repeaters and Apple TV via iTunes and AirPlay Utility, BUT DOESN'T WORK as well to have stable music, photos, videos, and conections.
    Thanks

  • Tried unsuccessfully to restore my MBP, running the Mac OSX Lion, to factory settings. I keep getting the "can't download additional components for the Mac OSX Lion" error when reinstalling the OSX Lion. Any tips on how to resolve this problem?

    Hello! Tried unsuccessfully to restore my MBP, running the Mac OSX Lion, to factory settings. I keep getting the "can't download additional components for the Mac OSX Lion" error when reinstalling the OSX Lion. Any tips on how to resolve this problem?

    Hi
    Given that your answer to 1. is 'pre-installed' and 3. is 'No', I think the only thing to do is to take it to an Apple store (ideally the one you bought it from) and have them reinstall it for you.
    The intended solution in cases like yours is that you should be able to reboot and install even a wiped disk by using Apple's servers over the internet (you do this by restarting with 'command-r' and choosing 'reinstall Lion'). However if this isn't working for you then you need to get the store to do it. Don't let them fob you off with 'go home and try again'. Have them do it in the shop (you're still covered by Applecare warranty so it should cost you nothing save the inconvenience of the trip and possibly leaving the machine there while they fix it).
    A reinstall should leave all your own personal data and programs in place.
    Note for future: when you get it fixed, first thing to do is buy a cheap external drive and start keeping a backup (either Time Machine or clone with Carbon Copy Cloner).

  • AirPort Express as a Wireless Adapter For Xbox 360 and to stream PC audio?

    Ok, so I am wondering if I can do this config with an AirPort express. I want to connect the AirPort to my existing WiFi, and be able to plug in an Ethernet cable connected to an Xbox 360 to get Xbox Live, as well as stream audio from my PC. Is this possible to do at once? Also, is it possible to stream PC audio, not just iTunes music? Thanks for your time.

    Hello podalex,
    Just an FYI for you with regard to the Airport Express:
    It is always best to check with the software manufacturer FIRST. They will tell you if they have tested the product and the version, as well as whether or not it will work with Windows 7.
    Check out the Windows 7 Compatibility site: (There you will find out about hardware and software compatibility.)
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/en-us/default.aspx
    There is a pulldown from which you can choose "hardware" and "software".
    There are also some great articles, instructional videos and such to help with your Windows 7 at our Springboard site:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/default.aspx
    In any event a lot of the times, Vista drivers will work in lieu of Windows 7 drivers, however, it's not 100%!
    As stated previously, it's best to have the Windows 7 certified drivers installed.
    Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 Support Forum located here http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w7itpro/ . It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams. You may want to check the threads available there for additional assitance and support.

    When you upgrade the firmware on your Router, you need to Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
    For your XBOX you can make these changes on  yuor Router as well as on your XBOX. I think it should make the NAT Open on your XBOX.
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    On the set-up tab change the MTU Size to 1365 and click Save Settings...
    Click on "Administration" tab and disable the option UPnP and click Save Settings...
    Click on "Applications and Gaming" tab and then click on "Port Range Forwarding" subtab...
    1) On the first line in Application box type in ABC, in the start box type in 53 and End box type in 3074, leave the protocol as both and under ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and check the enable box, click Save Settings once done...
    2) Once you return to the set up page click on the Security tab and uncheck Block Anonymous Internet Requests and click on Save Settings...
    3)Click on the Status tab and take note of DNS1 and DNS2 Addresses...
    4) Goto the XBox Network Settings and IP Address Settings and select manual IP Settings and assign the following on your Xbox IP Address :- 192.168.1.20, Subnet Mask :- 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway :- 192.168.1.1...
    5) Also assign the DNS Addresses on the Xbox, Use DNS1 and DNS2 Addresses you took note off of the router status tab as Primary DNS & Secondary DNS for the xbox...
    6) Turn off your modem, router, and Xbox...Wait for a minute...
    7) Plug the modem power first, wait for another minute and plug the router power cable, wait another minute and turn on the Xbox and test it...it will connect...
