There may be a very small number of exceptions owing to some rights clearances.

Unfortunately these seem to be most of the American imported series like Hawaii five O.:(

Cheers. I'm not too fussed about hd, but the American content is a bit annoying. I'm fairly certain Hawaii 5-0 was there at one point, but are any staff members kindly able to explain why we haven't got NCIS etc? Rights?

I've a sneaky suspicion DF that the bulk of VM's content is Anytime+ which bar movies on Sky is all SD , the Sky Help Forum have said over the coming months that HD will be introduced to Anytime+ starting with Sky1.

Re: Sky Anytime
 
So in other words as a sky customer you get anytime. Plug your stb into a router and you get anytime and anytime+, and what we're getting is just the anytime+ part of that service ie the download by internet part as opposed to the download by satellite part?

muppetman11 05-02-2012 18:47

Re: Sky Anytime
 
Some content could be rights issues but I believe HD Sky content will turn up soon on VM , could it be linked to HD joining Sky Anytime+ ? I'm guessing here.

Just looking at the Sky Anytime on TIVO , I like the new layout makes finding your show easier , broken down to genre then ABC etc.

I'm not back in the office until tomorrow will have a look whats on the VM schedule. Obviously this could be different to the Sky Anytime schedule.

I do know why some programmes are not available but due to company confidentiality I am unable to say.

Re: Sky Anytime
 
Cheers guys for all the answers.

Very intriguing answer from essjay, which I guess means this is something we may never know!

Let the speculation commence :-)

Is there any news when Movies in HD is being added for anytime? I know it's been asked several times so sorry if I've missed it :td:

Re: Sky Anytime
 
Hope it won't be too long as I added Movies & Sports at the weekend with premium HD so I hope to get some value for the extra £7.

Re: Sky Anytime
 
Unfortunately they mentioned Sky Movies in HD on Anytime ages ago and we've still been told nothing more ever since :td:

...And adverts for Sky movies at christmas always showed It's a wonderful life in widescreen, but everytime i tuned in it was 4:3 :(

Watching a movie from Sky Anytime from the Movies HD section and i posted a while back saying no 5.1 audio for them but i have found that there is only 1 audio track instead of 2.0 stereo audio and 5.1 audio, checked my Tivo and its just 1 audio which is 5.1. Great news that the HD anytime movies are 5.1

Re: Sky Anytime
 
Any idea why there are no subtitles on Sky movies Anytime, when they appear on Sky Movies.

Apologies for posting on General Tivo Discussion, but this thread seems "cold"

essjay 06-06-2012 17:11

Re: Sky Anytime
 
At the present moment it is not technically possible to include subtitles for On demand content.
