Bravia YouTube app & 4oD channel videos

[huxley123]

On my KDL-40CX523, I can watch YouTube videos, but some stuff, e.g. Channel 4 videos on their Youtube channel seem to be hidden.

I can save them on my PC to my YouTube account favourties, but they just don't show on the TV app. (other YouTube videos are fine).

Just to be clear, I'm not talking about viewing 4oD directly, but viewing content Ch4 have placed on YouTube.

Is there any way round this, or is it just a restriction?

Hi there

Unfortunately this is a restriction placed by 4oD themselves from what I remember.  They only want you to access the content via PC only. 

To be honest, these types of restrictions and others that are available (ie Geo-blocking, censorship on particular devices etc) really annoy me on what supposed to be an open cross-platform way of viewing media.

Cheers
