Connecting skygo (via chromebook) to tv via hdmi

[stevencaz]

I have skgo on my chromebook and it works fine. But when I try and connect the chromebook to the tv via a hdmi skygo stops playing and a message appears saying its blocked.

Is there anyway to change the setting to allow me to watch skygo via the chromebook on my tv?

Im afraid not as it is blocked to to rights and license restrictions.

The Go app permits external screen use over HDMI on Windows and OSX  (desktop/laptop)

As @caesarome indicates, this is blocked on iOS and Android (phone/tablet)

Because Chrome OS has a heritage similar to Android, I suspect the Go app on Chrome has inherited this blocking even though it's on a laptop rather than a tablet form-factor.

Many thanks for the responses. I did wonder if it was due to the fact it used the same set up as the phone/tablet app. Shame really as more people have chromebooks these days as their choice of laptop and  this leaves them at a disadvantage. Maybe something sky could like at changing, but I know it took long enough to get an app that worked on chromebook.
