We are always available at [email protected]. We try and respond to all requests within 30 minutes. Note that we are a bit slower to respond during the middle of the night, so we appreciate your patience if we happen to be sleeping.

Please email us from the same email address as your account. This ensures we can verify who you are.  Also, please provide us with as much detail as possible about the question you may have or the issue you may be experiencing.  We will respond to you as quickly as possible.

You can view screeners on the following platforms:

• Computer Browser
• iOS (via the browser)
• Android (via the browser) - Note that for some screeners, you may need to contact us at [email protected] for viewing access.
• AppleTV (search for Award Bureau in the app store)
• Roku (search for the Award Bureau channel on your Roku)
• Airplay / Chromecast
• SmartTV* (via the browser)

*Some SmartTVs may be able to run the Award Bureau site in the built-in browser.  In terms of specific models that are capable, unfortunately, there are too many models for us to have tested them all.  We have tried a few newer Samsung and LG SmartTVs with success.  If this is your preferred viewing experience, our best recommendation is to try and see how your SmartTV fares.

Note that on some SmartTVs, the playback controls may not fade out while viewing.  As the SmartTV browsers are not as robust as those found on your computer, we cannot always provide the same type of experience as viewing on another device.

This error is caused by your external display such as a TV or monitor, or the connection to the display, not being compatible with the required DRM.

• If you are connected to an external display, you must use HDMI or some other HDCP compliant connection such as Display Port or Mini-Display Port.
• If you are using an adaptor to connect your computer to an external display, such as USB-C to HDMI, not all adaptors are HDCP compliant. Note that those made by Apple generally are.
• If you are attempting to wirelessly connect to a TV, you must use AirPlay or Chromecast.  Mirroring does not support the required secure connection.

Some Windows users have experienced DRM errors when connecting to external displays such as a TV even if the display is HDCP compliant. If this occurs, we recommend you switch your display settings from "Duplicate these displays" to "Extended these displays". This can be accessed via Settings > Display while connected to the external display.

Add-ons or extensions such as ad blockers or pop up blockers may prevent the screener from loading correctly. We recommend you disable them while using this site.  Note that we have tested some blockers.

• DuckDuck Go Privacy Essentials, uBlock Origin and Ghostery will not allow the site to work in their default mode.
• DISCONNECT, AdGuard and Adblock Plus generally allow the site to work in their default mode.

Due to the security requirements of the studio, they have requested that a watermark be placed over the screener.

Yes, if the studio provided the screener with surround sound.  Our system supports up to Dolby Atmos surround sound.

We recommend at least a 5Mbps download connection speed to stream content.  The site does support adaptive bitrate streaming, so the faster your connection, the better the quality of the image.  You can test your internet connection speed with a number of free services, including SpeedTest.net.

Yes, an internet connection is required to watch a screener because it is streaming platform only.  Download with offline playback is not available.
