I haven't been able to get supersport streaming to work on my Android device ever since DSTV shifted the platform from supersport to DSTV now (about a week ago). To be clear, I'm trying to watch in my browser not via the app. I get a message saying "Playback on this device is not supported". Has anyone been able to get this to work?

You may ask why not just install the app - it has to do with the 4 device limit.

Did you try to change the user agent and selected the Desktop version of the site in the menu?

Edit: the browser's menu

Thanks for the tip. I tried it and the site opens now but video doesn't play properly, the browser just crashes after a few seconds. Stupid multichoice... Why break a perfectly functional website?

They recently updated the supersport website.

Watch live now redirects you to the DSTVNow website, which as far as i am aware does not work on android boxes.

If you read my OP, you'll see that was the point to the thread...

I any case, I'm trying to get this to work on my phone via the browser, not a box. Also, DSTVnow works great on my MiBox (android box)
