7 Day Catchup Irish Channels

cc · 27-12-2024 12:10PM #1

I have Vodafone TV right now, one of the things I like most with it is for Irish channels I have full 7 day access to catch up without having to use RTE or Virgin media players with their Ads.

I'm considering Sky/Eir/Virgin equivalent next when the contract is up, do they offer the same functionality or send you to their own players for catch up? (only looking for IP based services currently)

they will send you to the players with ads I’m afraid. If you contact Vodafone when contract is up I’ve found them really good about recontracting at the lower price.

iBox have a good 7 day catchup service. Subscription is 10 euro a month.

Have you used this service? I'm not so sure about them given their website still mentions the likes of TV3/3E and UTV!

Been using it for 10 years now, it’s fine. Our main TV is Virgin but I use iBox on our second TV when mrs P and I watch different programs. I cast it from the phone or laptop to Chromecast. I’d say there hasn’t been a lot of development gone into it since it started but given packages start from 3 euro a month it’s hardly a huge money spinner.

I hope you don't mind me jumping in with a question.

In a similar situation myself and was thinking about iBox. Do the channels gets streamed in HD with iBox ?

Thanks a mill

Been a while since I used it but as far as I can remember - if the saorview/freesat channel is in HD, then it's in HD on ibox- eg RTE1/2, TG4, BBCs
Don't know if it's 720 or 1080 but picture quality looked pretty good on those channels
