Watch ESPN iPhone App - Unable to play video
I am trying out the new Watch ESPN app on iPhone and when clicking on Watch Now I get an error message stating "Access to this content requires a television subscription. Please contact your TV proider to subscribe".
Is there a seperate subscription required to watch on the ESPN app?

I am also having problems with the espn now app I was able to watch espn on my iPad yesterday (1/1/2013) but not today getting the network not included in your subscription error. I am watching espn right now on my computer (Windows 7) from the xfinitytv.comcast.net link. I can watch it on my iMac using the same link, but if I try to go to watch espnnow.com I get the error that I need a subscription. On my iPhone I can't watch any espn channels. On both devices the dns servers are 75.75.75.75 and 76.76.76.76. I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled but still not working. Our set top box works on espn. Any idea why the watch espn app and watch espn.com do not work?

Do you have access to ESPN On Demand content that is on your cable box through your TV?

It is available, but they are all for purchase. This has to be the lamest app. What good is it if you have to be on Comcast DMS servers? How can you do that when on cell network (AT&T for me)?

Uninstall the app and then install it again.

I have the same issue since one week ago. When I tried ESPN or ESPN2 I get this message: Unable to Play Video "This network is not included in your current television subscription. Please contact your TV provider to subscribe.
I been using Watch ESPN app since June 2012 without issues, also I can see the channels on my cablebox and ESPN On Demand. Who I can solve this? Thanks in advance ....

I'm having the same issues as everyone else. I was previously able to access Espn and Espn 2 on my IPad/IPhone but over the past month or so I get the same error about not having the channels on my tv subscription. I can access Espn going through the Xfinity site but also get the same error going through watchespn.com.
Any solutions yet.

I have tried uninstalling the app many times and it still doesn't work. Also I do have access to espn through my cable box. It's been a couple months now. What should I do?

I keep getting the same message as other people. Unable to play content. Apparently I don't have the right subscription package, even though I have comcast on demand and internet. This problem just started too which I think is weird. Any help?
