Re: General Sky TV Discussion

How long does it take them to fix the problem and get a working version uploaded?

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

I just reakised I can't compare an AT+ downloaded episode against a recorded one because the recorded on has adverts

Over downloading 3 series of Sopranos that has made a huge difference just by itself.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

Do Sky have a dedicated website for their Sky3D channel, similar to the Sky Atlantc site?

I assumed that they would have but can't seem to find it.

Also is there any 3D content on Anytime+?

I've not seen 3D content on Anytime+ however there has been the odd thing on Anytime.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

Cheers for the link MM, I was hoping for a little more comprehensive website with a list of all Movies due to be shown etc.

I've just got home & after a quick look on Anytime+ I've not seen any 3D content. I'm surprised that the Sky3D channel isn't listed on there alongside Sky Atlantic etc.

Also, we will be looking to introduce 3D content within the showcase section of Anytime+. Due to the nature of this technology this is something we are looking to slowly introduce, again to enable us to ensure the content and quality of delivery is at a high level. The 3D content that we are able to broadcast through this feature is also restricted by the broadcast rights that are apparent. We appreciate that you are all looking to have more of this content shown. We are always looking to improve on our content where possible.

Sky 3D content has only been on Anytime to my knowledge I watched Pirates of the Carribean On stranger tides 3D off it recently.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

Thanks for the replies, I'd love to see Sky expand the licence agreement to allow them to include their 3D content on Anytime+.

This is more like what I was looking for MM, I know it's only for Movies but you get the idea

Whatever gave you that idea?

Well the missus was complaining about us needing a smaller TV, so I've used that as an excuse to give 3D a second chance. I was with VM the last time I had a 3DTV so now I've got Sky 3D there's much more content available.

I've got to say that I'm extremely impressed by the amount of 3D movies showing over the next few weeks, I've just added all the movies from the link above in to my basket on HMV and they come to whopping £275 if I bought the 3D blu rays!!

One suspects there will be a wave of discontent pretty soon then.

Not many people like increases Den so you may well be right from a personal point of view I can't complain with my current deal as its already considerably cheaper than the norm.
