Sky HD / Sky Q Catchup
Hi
with these impending price rises - enough is enough with VM although I have been with them for 17 years now. Anyway - My offspring are now complaining that if I jump to the darkside they don't want to download each program before watching it. Is this still the case or do they have 'apps' now on Sky+ ? thanks |
Re: Sky HD / Sky Q Catchup
You haven't had to download a show/movie/programme before you watch it on sky for years.
Basically the download will start then when enough of a buffer has been downloaded you can begin watching. I have sky fibre and a HD movie is ready to watch within about 50 seconds to 1 minute. A HD tv show is ready pretty much instantly, BBC Iplayer content is also pretty much instant. But this is Dependant on your broadband speed. I'm happy to make a quick vid of how long from watching live TV to fnding a on demand movie, selecting it and then begin watching it. |

I just got skY Q yesterday and have been playing around with my new toy:D and one of the first things i noticed is that the on demand content is almost instant ,literally a couple of seconds after starting the download it was available to watch even the UHD stuff like Blacklist so not an issue

Re: Sky HD / Sky Q Catchup
I'm on 38mb fibre and as you say even the UHD content is pretty much instantly available.
---------- Post added at 18:10 ---------- Previous post was at 17:38 ---------- Reading the thread back it is worth mentioning that On Demand whilst virtually instantly available on good BB connections does download and use hard drive space until deleted although in all honesty it's never caused me space issues. That said I've never downloaded everything in UHD.:D |
