Fire tv 4k Stick

[jezport]

Thought it was too good to be true that the BBC app listings were added to the EPG, now the wait for a fix

On this thread there are references to my5, my take on this is that this no longer exists and 5 is the new app...
I'm skipping through this and finding everything works on a 4k Firestick..

Hi, if you have the live tv just before you get to your channels, click on that then drop down to guide and access 5 from there - it comes up with no listing information but takes you straight onto 5
Better still look for Troypoint and download Kodi onto your FS

Always confused about the Firestick ie why have one ? If your TV is a smart TV I presume you don't need one ??

TVs usually can't have a VPN installed, so good luck using a smart TV for iplayer in France.

We completely ignore the smartness built into our TV, as the firestick works faster and better, and also does a higher quality stream (and we can control how much data it uses easier than the inbuilt TV apps).

My personal view is you will overpay for UK based sim if you want to use a smart-tv in France, where if you have a firestick you can connect to campsite wifi (or aire wifi) if it exists and use the vpn and still get UK tv just fine.

5 isn't show available on the epg at all if you have deleted the 5 app and reinstalled as amazon advise. So you end up worse off.

No I simply go home on FS move 1 place to the right then down to tv guide and it shows all Chanel’s but nothing on 5 click on 5 and it loads up all ch5 stuff

I’ve just checked and if I select live and then guide and as you say it doesn’t show any five programs but if you select 5 it then give a choice which 5 channel to watch.

You can ask a Firestick to find programs and better for touring with.

I think I understand what is causing this issue but I think it's a bug. If you go to settings, Live TV then sync sources you will see My5, what should happen if you click on it, is it should come up with a list of all the available channels in My5, however there is no longer a My5 app it is now just called 5, so clicking on My5 does nothing, there is no My5 for the system to scan. Either 5 or Amazon need to sort this out.
