Itv x

[sportagegirl]

Will v6 customers get the swap over from the itv hub to itv x on 8th December? Can't see a reason why not as we have the other free streaming apps.

According to https://www.cordbusters.co.uk/itvx-streaming-app-wont-work-older-devices/ the V6 & TV360 boxes will get ITV-X

Nothing has been officially confirmed by VM as yet.

Or will Scottish customers get branded folders on CM's on-demand systems again, like we do with Hub currently because STV Player is the app for ITV1 catch-up here?

Actually, I just looked, the folder is now rebranded as ITV Catch-up and contains subfolders for ITV1- ITVBe. ITV1 is a new folder and previous CiTV folder is now not there.

Hi @sportagegirl, thanks for reaching out to us on the forums.

As of yet nothing has been made official, but once any changes are prepared - we will inform all customers.
Keep an eye out on your email for any communications sent by us.

Kind regards,
Ilyas.

Both V6 and 360 boxes have been updated with ITVX app  -   but the V6 version does NOT have the LIVE channel streams.

[sportagegirl]

What does that mean please? What is live channel stream?

[ozsat]

You can watch any of the main ITV channels live in the app - or one of several others ITV have set up  -  but NOT on the V6.

So can I still access all the new drama that is being advertised?

[ozsat · Accepted solution]

Should be able too - it is just the actually live channels not available.

Never used the Apps page before. Same wait as for BBC iPlayer.

From VM How To Watch 22 September:

"ITV Hub is available to all Virgin TV customers with Virgin TV 360 box or a V6 box, powered by TiVo®. Customers with those boxes will be able to find it in the Apps & Games section. You don’t need to do anything. It’ll be there waiting for you as soon as you’re ready."

And indeed it is there when I go to Apps. Press the button, onscreen message:

"The ITV Hub app can only be used on V6 boxes so you'll need to upgrade...However your favourite (?) ITV shows are sill available in Catch Up..."

Not sure it's worth the bother
