Hi,

 

Last night I could not watch the world cup on Film On as there was a test card type message on screen saying FIFA had banned screening the matches or similar in my location (in Spain).

Is there any way around this?

I also have IPTV box but it seems to buffer every five minutes during big matches.

 

Thanks,

Jane

Most matches are on Spanish telly (usually telecinco).  Best alternative to that is a local bar.  Most will still be showing the matches despite the early taxi for the Spanish team.

The Uruguay v England match is on Telecinco tonight. You can also watch it online here.

Of course, our local English pub is showing it and so is the Spanish bar around the corner along with all the other matches. 

And Filmon is not just blocking you in Spain. It's not showing them with a UK ip address, either.

try  wiziwig.tv    they have all the games around the world.

go to live sports at the top, then choose world cup, then the match you want, then the station you want.

Normally get BBC and ITV on there and very good streaming.
