Will be on the +1 service at 8 for anyone who can pick up rte. Very gd show which basically dispells a lot of the passive building costs way more myths that usually get brought up. Also included a standard house that went from a G rating,lowest, to an A3,3rd highest, by using ewi upgraded passive windows mhrv etc.
Jeremy Harris Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 It's great to see retrofits doing so well, given that our biggest challenge is trying to improve existing housing stock, even though it's rubbish new builds that get most of the headlines. What's the programme called, Declan, as I'm trying to see if I can watch it on RTÉ Player.

I just set my VPN to a server that's in Ireland, so has an Irish IP address, and it seems to work OK, but the show that Declan mentioned doesn't seem to be there. No mention of a charge, either, on the "about" section it just says this: Quote The RTÉ Player is a free online catch-up service which lets you watch a variety of programmes for up to 21 days after they are broadcast on RTÉ One and RTÉ Two television. The same trick works if you want to watch BBC content when outside the UK, just set a VPN to a UK server and as far as the BBC are concerned you're in the UK Note to mods: If I appear to be somewhere odd in the world if you ever geolocate my IP, it's only because I've forgotten to switch the VPN off!

Declan52 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Last Tuesdays episode is on it so am not sure why yesterdays isn't. Maybe like everything else in Eire it just takes a little longer!!!
Declan52 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 If you search for Eco eye rte player season 15 episode 9 On Google it will find it . Even us in the north are blocked from using the rte player as our IP address shows up as UK based but I use a ghost IP address if I ever need to watch something.
Jeremy Harris Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Thanks Declan, I'll go and try to find it now. Better set the VPN to an IP in RoI first, though!
