Mini Box - true multi screen?

Go to solution

Happy New Year fellow BT Community members.

To make the mini box a true multi screen device, what is the the chance of the software being updated so you can watch what you have recorded on the main pro box in another room using the mini box?  (just like the sky q mini or the Humax aura, where you can chromecast recorded programs around the house via an app, or via ip address (so a smart tv can see it as a media server).

This was discussed on another thread that I can't find at the moment.

A BT Employee basically said never say never, but no. 

Data shows that most people are using catch up to see anything they missed rather than recording (not in my house but each to their own), so it wasn't deemed necessary or a priority. Live or on demand viewing only currently.

Interestingly (perhaps only to me as BT TV morphs into EE TV later this year), the original EE TV box they discontinued when they closed the service had 4 Freeview tuners in it and could cast recordings to other devices around the home.

Many thanks, will let the other half know that it looks like she is banished to the bedroom to watch her recorded programs.
