ATL ON DEMAND is not currently formatted as an app which can be accessed directly on your TV. However there are multiple ways to connect a website such as ATL ON DEMAND to your TV from your laptop/phone/tablet for better quality listening and viewing.

1. HDMI Cable

One of the most reliable (and easiest) ways to connect your TV and laptop is with an HDMI cable. An HDMI cable transmits video and audio signals between two devices.

HDMI cables are the same on both ends, so it doesn’t matter which one goes into the TV or the laptop.

TO CONNECT YOUR LAPTOP TO YOUR TV WITH AN HDMI CABLE:

  1. Plug one end of the HDMI cable into the HDMI output on your laptop.
  2. Plug the other end of the cable into one of the HDMI inputs on your TV.
  3. Using the remote control, select the input that corresponds to where you plugged in the cable (HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI 3, etc.).

A wired connection between your laptop and TV ensures better picture quality and a shorter lag time.

2. Air Play (Apple TVs only)

This option is for those with an Apple TV

  1. Connect your device to the same Wi-Fi network as your Apple TV or AirPlay 2-compatible smart TV.1
  2. Find the video that you want to stream.
  3. Tap AirPlay . In some apps, you may need to tap a different button first.2 For example, in the Photos app, tap Share , then tap AirPlay .
  4. Choose your Apple TV or AirPlay 2-compatible smart TV.

To stop streaming, tap AirPlay in the app you’re streaming from, then tap your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch from the list.

3. Our brand new app! (Android TVs only)

This option is for those with an Android TV

  1. Head to the the Android app store (Google Play) and download the ATL On Demand app.
  2. Sign in to your ATL On Demand account and find the video that you want to stream.
  3. Allow the app to connect to your TV and voila, stream away!

This app was made possible thanks to the generosity of philanthropist Victoria Taylor. Thank you, Victoria!

To unsubscribe from either ATL ON DEMAND or ATL ON DEMAND: EDUCATION, please follow these steps.

  1. Login via https://stream.australiantheatre.live/
  2. In the upper right corner, navigate to your profile by hovering over your name and clicking the drop down option “Manage Account”
  3. On the left hand menu click “Subscription”
  4. Click the “Cancel Subscription” button and follow the subsequent prompts

We hope to one day welcome you back to the Australian Theatre Live digital community.

To cancel the auto-renewal feature, cancel the subscription on the storefront (Manage Account > Subscription > Cancel Subscription). Once the subscription is cancelled the user will continue to have benefits of the current subscription plan till the expiry date even when their subscription is cancelled. No subsequent debits will be made as the user intends. Once their monthly plan period is completed their account will be automatically changed as a Free user and they may re-subscribe in future per their requirement.

When subscribing you will have the option to enable an “auto-renewal” feature.

If this is selected and enabled, at the end of your subscription period – whether that be a month or a year – your subscription will be renewed for that same initial period.

Unfortunately, if this auto-renewal feature is activated, we are unable to process a refund.

However, if you wish to prevent a future renewal you can cancel your current subscription and you will not be charged again, but you will still have access to the platform for the remaining duration of the subscription.

We are sorry that we cannot fulfill these requests, however we hope that users will continue to enjoy the catalogue, and be assured that the cost of subscriptions goes directly towards the artists and arts organisations featured on the platform, and helping ATL to capture and archive more Australian live performance for the generations to come.

Your support is invaluable and greatly appreciated.
