Just got a Roku and wanted to use the SKYGO channel.

I've added my skygo user/pw to the Roku settings and can browse content but get 'video unavailable' when trying to play anything. Does the chanel actually work?

Also using the plex media server in my pc all the chanel does is kick me off to http://go.sky.com - what's the point of that?
