Watching live PPV events on TV

From time to time you can pay to watch live sports and entertainment events on TV.

Pair a Bluetooth Device

You can pair your own devices, such as headphones, speakers, and mobile devices via Bluetooth to your Fetch Mini. So, you can listen to Fetch without disturbing anyone else in the room via headphones, or play music from your phone on your Fetch Mini and TV.

To pair a Bluetooth device
Power on your headphones, speakers, or mobile device and make sure the device is ready to pair. For mobile phones, remember to turn on Bluetooth in the device settings.

Go to Menu > > Audio & Visual > Bluetooth.

  1. To pair a Bluetooth headset, choose Send Audio.
  2. To pair your mobile device, choose Receive Audio.
  3. Select to scan for your device then choose the device name on the screen to pair.

Note

  • Bluetooth pairing is not supported on Gen 2 boxes.
  • You can't currently pair an Apple iPad to the Fetch box via Bluetooth.

Listen to Fetch through headphones or speakers
When listening to Fetch through Bluetooth headphones you can control the volume and pause or play from the device. When watching TV with others in the room you can listen to Fetch through both the headphones and TV. Select your device and then TV Audio in the Bluetooth settings. You can then change the volume on your headphones without affecting the box.

Send music to Fetch from your mobile phone

When you pair your phone to your Fetch Mini via Bluetooth, you can pick songs from your music library or an app to play on your TV. Any audio you play from your phone – such as Snapchat, Instagram, YouTube, and Spotify – will play on your paired Fetch Mini and TV.

Tips and help for Bluetooth

If you are having trouble using Bluetooth on Fetch to listen through headphones, speakers or smartphones, here are some things to try:

  1. If you can't pair headphones or speakers to your Fetch box, check your Bluetooth device is in "pairing mode". On headphones this is typically shown by a flashing light.
  2. Check if your Bluetooth headphones or speakers are paired to another device. If so, disconnect them from the other device then try to pair to your Fetch box again.
  3. Make sure you're in range of your Fetch box and there's no interference from nearby devices like wireless speakers or cordless phones.
  4. Make sure your Bluetooth device is fully charged, or try changing the batteries in the device. Try turning Bluetooth off and on or restarting your device to see if this helps.
  5. Check for firmware updates on your Bluetooth device.
  6. Check that you can pair your Bluetooth device to another device. If you can't, then you may need to seek help from your Bluetooth device manufacturer or documentation.
  7. If you replace faulty Bluetooth headphones or speakers you were using with Fetch, you should 'forget' the device. Go to Menu > > Audio & Visual > Bluetooth and press . This will stop the box from trying to pair to an old device.
  8. If you can, turn off Bluetooth on your Fetch box when you're not using it. (So your device doesn't pair to your Fetch box whenever you're in range). Go to > Audio & Visual > Bluetooth and choose Turn Off. If you've paired the remote you can't turn off Bluetooth as the remote needs a Bluetooth connection to enable voice control

The Remote Control

The remote control brings Fetch to life. It has all the functions you need for quick and easy viewing.
