Catch Up & Adverts
More and more adverts have started to appear on Catch Up. This has ruined the advantage for myself as it was a good way to watch a CH4/CH5 program without the five minutes of adverts every 10 minutes.

Re: Catch Up & Adverts
I find the FF and REW very sluggish and unresponsive on my basic Samsung box.

Re: Catch Up & Adverts
Indeed it is. I know why it is so and it can't be helped but that's just another reason I don't like using OD except as a last resort.

Re: Catch Up & Adverts

Yeah, last resort for me too.
Like when people are talking about a certain show that happened the night before for instance. It's cool to go back and watch it. But to watch all your shows this way....no thanks!
