Honestly I don't really know. I did delete a couple of posts as I was unsure about the details I was posting. But this info tries to explain. It seems that certain countries are not allowed to broadcast live games when matches chosen for international broadcast.Originally Posted by Carl Dale's Mole

International Pass holders may be able to watch every Sky Bet Championship fixture throughout the 2022/23 season, including Cardiff City TV's full pre-match show, interviews, previews, highlights and more!*
*Fixtures selected for television broadcast may not be available in your location, with audio commentary provided as an alternative. However, due to a change in EFL streaming policy, those living outside of Core International Countries (listed below), will have access to the following:
ALL matches originally scheduled for midweek will now be available to watch internationally outside of the listed territories, regardless of television broadcast selection.
ALL Sky Bet Championship weekend fixtures selected for television broadcast may still be watched outside of the listed Core territories, if your local provider has opted not to broadcast.
These updated terms mean that supporters tuning in internationally will now have more access than ever before to watching the Bluebirds play remotely!
Please note that City's campaign opener against Norwich City on Saturday, July 30th has been selected for international coverage, meaning that Cardiff City TV will be only broadcasting via Audio in some regions.
