Thought you guys might like to know that TVCatchUp is now in public Beta for you all to try out (UK only I think).

Just point your browser to m.tvcatchup.com.

Think you need to register but that is all.

Linky to my blog post here about it.

really? i'm finding it to be pretty poor quality, very pixelly and with a definite lag. I tried in low and high quality too. I'm on Orange and have got a good signal here at work too. Haven't tried it over wi-fi yet.

 

[mabizela]

im next to my wifi router and it says the signal is low and its very poor quality on the high quality. my wifi always shows as weak im not sure if its a common problem.

Yesssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[johnnyinbelfast]

excellent news.
It's a good day for tv on the HTC Desire.
On the app market - there's a new app called myPlayer (I think it's new anyway -I haven't seen it before)
Seems to be a pretty good iplayer app

myPlayer - link to www.skynetsoftware.com

I already had an account. When I log in and select teh channel after "loading" for a while "unabel to connect to server" so far on H and Wifi.

What browser are you sing? And what settings pleasE?

I cant connect

 

[mbatson89]

Anyone managed to get this working on Vodafone? apparently there are issues which seems to be confirmed when i try to tune in

 

[gibbs1984]

I've had good quality but even though I'm on WiFi which is very close it tells me that I have a weak signal and stops, a tad bit annoying, I'm going to try in other areas.

On T-Mobile by the way.

 

[SUroot]

reboot. Still cannot get it to play "unable to play video - cannot connect to the sever" o2 uk H + Wifi, standard browser

 

[DaddyCee]

Ditto, might be the sudden influx of Android users crashing their systems.

 

[SUroot]

Could be. Shame.

 

[Dazo]

Working fine here over wifi although it took a while to sign up. I assume they have been hammered when this went public.

 

[DaddyCee]

seems to work on 3G network and not WiFi. Give that a try.

 

[bonerp]

mine won't work on 3g either - vodafone user.

Same with yamgo. Altho this does work on wifi but not 3g. Just can't test TVcatchup out on wifi as at work.

Vodafone are tossers

just checking with vodafone and they have just asked me to restart the phone without the sim - this has done nothing.

I am still onto them now.....

 

[SUroot]

I cant load the page at all. Just checked on desktop computer getting same error. definitely takign a hit. World cup, uk office hours.... go figure

 

[Bunjiweb]

Am getting unable to connect to server, but seems to be working brilliantly on PC. I am wondering if their servers are getting a hammering of people watching the SA vs Mexico game on tv catchup and launching this on the same day!

[gibbs1984]

Yeah, can you all please get off the website, I want to watch the football!

 

[CarsnGadgets]

wont connect to server ...

O2, Uk, using 'H' or 'G' :0( not tried wifi yet.

 

[DaddyCee]

bet it swallows mega bandwidth on 3G connection though.

Try during non-world cup match hours.
