Re: Internet and tv

Also check out Europa network. I used them for years and found them to be excellent. You don't have to have their box, just connect your computer to the tv via. an HDMI cable.

Re: TV and Internet help

You are the one who is confused, and doesn't seem to know the difference between TVCatchup & BBC/ITV iPlayers (which are catchup TV, and they use that term when advertising their programs).

Re: TV and Internet help

Not at all. You are talking about the UK TV program 'TVCatchup' and not the BBC/ITV catchup players. Perhaps you would like to tell us which VPN you are using 'cos I'm sure others would like to know!

Re: TV and Internet help

I haven't seen any complaints on the forum yet, suggesting that there has been a change and that people can't access UK iPlayer progs. So let's wait and see shall we.

Re: TV and Internet help

There's nothing new in being able to block the use of VPN's, 'TVCatchup' did it years ago. Companies can easily do it, if they want to!

Re: TV and Internet help
