      Not that you should have to, but wouldn’t running Windows on a virtual machine thwart Peacock’s restrictions? Again, not that I think that that should justify Peacock’s restrictive stance.

        I thought about that but if I need it that bad I can put it on my phone and put some earbuds in BUT what’s crazy is I even tried mirroring my screen from my phone to my desktop via USB and it STILL blocked the video like it didn’t throw up the error it normally does, but it def was a turd about it

        What’s shit is that like it’ll play trailers and I can browse and get the little pre-watch thing like when you hover over a show going so I know it’s just a setting they can flip on their end but they won’t. I sent them a trouble ticket and they just give some generic “go look at our supported devices list” response

        Like OG I make solid money and I’ll pay for the content you guys have bc you’re not busting balls like other streaming services but like work with me and let me watch it on whatever device I want or having to give out my log in info to other people so I can watch MY account on THEIR device

        Running in a Windows VM should work, at least it did for me with Amazon. The issue was my pc and graphics virtualization software isn’t fast enough for an acceptable experience. Slide shows with terrible frame pacing isn’t fun.
