Treat the console notice as a service change
RTBF’s notice gives 1 September 2025 as the end of its PlayStation 4 and 5 application. It says the app stops working even if already installed and is removed from the PlayStation Store. Reinstalling that console edition is consequently not the documented recovery route. The notice instead directs viewers to compatible television apps, mobile casting or computer-browser viewing.
Check an existing LG television first
For LG, RTBF’s installation guide specifies models from 2019 with webOS 4.5 or later. Check both conditions on the television you intend to use. The guide also separates the LG account needed for the application store from the Auvio account used for viewing. Owning a PlayStation or having an LG store login does not create the broadcaster account required by the replacement route.
Install the broadcaster’s television application
On the compatible connected LG screen, press Home, open LG Content Store and search for Auvio. Select RTBF Auvio under Apps and install it. RTBF says the new application appears at the right end of Home. This is an installation on the television’s own operating system, so it does not restore the retired application within the console.
Pair the intended Auvio account
Open the TV app and choose J’ai un compte. The guide offers an eight-letter code entered at auvio.rtbf.be/pairing from a phone or computer, or a QR-code route. With QR pairing, a phone already signed into Auvio can transfer that session to the TV; otherwise sign in there first. Check which broadcaster account is open on the phone before using that convenient transfer.
