Don't thank me thank the person who posted the images to the Sky user forum. I agree though it looks pretty good and the forum speculates its arrival is imminent , just need 4OD to arrive at some point now.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
Anyone noticed that the HD entertainment content now seems to become available in a matter of seconds just like the movies , it would appear Sky have being doing some work on the On Demand service.

Best way is as follows
Go into On Demand - Movies then All , type first two or three letters of title
Example searching for Shrek type SHR and it should find both SD and HD if both are available. I'm sure at some point HD thumbnails will become default for Sky+HD subscribers.

Never thought of that way but still seems long winded. I hope they get HD thumb nails sorted. Its not a big issue but is a pain

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
BSkyB told to withdraw misleading 'rent movies instantly' advert.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2012...stant-ad-claim
Quote:
|
The advertising watchdog has told BSkyB to stop exaggerating the speed of its film download service, after rival BT complained its claim that it was "instant" was misleading.
|
Quote:
The advertising watchdog was not swayed by BSkyB's argument.
It said that making a claim of "instant" indicated to consumers that they could watch a film "straightaway, or with no noticeable delay", when in fact Sky admitted that for some viewers with slower broadband connections the delay could be considerably longer.
"We considered that a delay of up to a minute for most customers (and longer for those with slower broadband connections) would not be in line with their reasonable expectations for an online movie service which was described as 'instant'," the ASA ruled. "We therefore considered that the ad had exaggerated the capabilities of the service and we concluded that it was likely to mislead."
