How does one find this extra matches? Don't see them coming up here on any device or app?

Hi, @ozsat , they are on the BT Sports app. Have a look at the schedule.

@DarrenDev mentioned it here. Some matches are digital only and available only on the app.

On the Ipad (Ios) BT Sport App they were not very well promoted, -

For example in the Football section in the BEST OF there was a single tile with a title of Europa League - Every 8Pm kick-off which if selected then lists every 8pm kick off

Alternatively the games are available from the Schedule in the App

live-footballontv.com is my go to web site for all football coverage.

But as your screen shot comes from there I am not clear as to what is the question you are asking?

Thanks all - I'll have another look next time.

I tried the Amazon app, the iPad app and online BT site and could not find the "extra" games - only thoses on the regular 10 channels.

Hi @ozsat on the iPad app the Schedule tab (at the bottom next to Live) is probably the easiest - That will list a schedule of live events and when that event starts to be broadcast it will play if you select it ... so for example this morning the MotoGp Free Practice 1 is in the schedule and will launch from that tile.

(The next round of Europa League games are already in the Schedule for November 26)

So back to this.

There were 13 5.55pm kickoffs all exclusive to BT Sport Digital.

I've tried the Nowtv and Amazon BT Sport apps - and can only find four matches even when selecting "Every 5.55pm kick-off" tile.

Are these only on the iPad app where I do see them.

Correct @ozsat - only in the iOS and Android apps - select the "Schedule" button at the bottom of the screen. We hope to bring them to the large screen BT Sport apps early in 2021.

Does it mean Legia Warsaws Wednesday game as a digital exclusive will only be on iPad?

iPad, iPhone, Android mobiles and Android tablets ... correct.
Unfortunately it hasn't yet been possible to bring the DX events to other platforms due to the way the video is delivered. We're still working on a solution.

And how is it being delivered? Thanks

DX streams are delivered already encoded and packaged, so they can only be consumed in the mobile app by the enhanced player, which is set up to receive them.
To bring them to all other platforms, we're going to need to consume, reencode/package, and distribute in all the different flavours required for all our platforms.

Ok thanks.
