TECHNICAL INFORMATION

You can watch on PCs running Windows 7+ and Intel-based Macs running macOS 10.12+. You will need a broadband or fiber internet connection––dial-up will not work. You’ll find a complete list of requirements below.

Windows 7, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10. Google Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer or Opera. We recommend using the latest version of your browser as earlier versions may not be supported.

MacOS 10.12 or later. Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Opera. We recommend using the latest version of your browser as earlier versions may not be supported.

Yes, you can watch content using Safari and this requires iOS 11.2 or later. We recommend using the latest version of your browser as earlier versions may not be supported.

Yes, you can watch content using Chrome and this requires Android 6.0 or later. We recommend using the latest version of your browser as earlier versions may not be supported.

Check your minimum system requirements above. We recommend that you update to the latest version of your browser. We use adaptive bitrate streaming, which means the streaming quality will automatically adjust based on your internet speed. For high-definition (HD) streaming we recommend VDSL, cable, or fiber connections as we cannot guarantee consistent HD streaming on ADSL.

Please ensure your system meets the minimum requirements. As an anti-piracy initiative, our Digital Store platform will not work if you have a video sharing program open. Please make sure you have completely closed down all applications that have the ability to record your screen. This includes, but is not limited to Zoom, Google Hangouts, Facetime, or any other screen recording programs. If you were hoping to join a friend virtually to watch a film together, please ensure that neither of you are using one of the above devices from the same device you are streaming your film from.

If your internet connection is poor or inconsistent you may experience problems during playback.

PROMO CODES

No. Our system does not support partial refunds.

Please do not. The promotional code you received is a benefit that doesn’t provide unlimited views.  Use the code responsibly – you may prevent someone from rightful redemption.

Please reach out to the partner that provided the code to you.
