| 1396027 | 2015-03-08 23:13:00 | I have my broadband through Spark/Xtra so have the free 12 month sub to Lightbox.... I tried using the Browser on my Panasonic smart TV but got the message that the browser needs to be updated or whatever.... does this mean that to watch Lightbox I need to use an HDMI cable with a laptop, tablet or other gadget.... TIA Bryden |

So the answer to your question is yes a laptop and HDMI cable is the way to go at the moment. I am running it through an old PS3 to my Sony Bravia Smart TV and it runs very nicely for me. |

| 1396030 | 2015-03-09 00:45:00 | Have a Samsung tablet so will see if that works and report back | Bryden (4161) | ||
| 1396031 | 2015-03-09 02:43:00 | Didn't like my Samsung Galaxy 10.1 tablet so I am currently set up to use my HP laptop.... Bought the Chromecast gadget but there must be something I am missing setting this up - will leave that for another day. Bryden |
