My experience on Roku was that the old tile was displayed but clicking on it went into the itvX app. After a short while, the tile updated to the yellow itvX format.

Although ITV Hub was withdrawn from Humax 4000 / 5000 and Freesat boxes a couple of months ago, so won't be getting itvX. A tad worrying that apps are already being withdrawn from boxes (and TVs) from around 2018. I'm not sure what it says about the Freeview Play spec. when models start to become obsolete within 4 years. Humax are still selling the FVP-5000T.

I know it is Android TV, probably a good thing as Humax doesn't have a good history of supporting its apps or devices for very long.

Paramount+ is currently 50% off for a 12 month subscription at £34.95,
I believe this offer lasts until Nov 28th

Yeah they have a very poor record with supporting apps, make fantastic boxes but useless at supporting apps.

Don't forget BBC iPlayer coverage of the World Cup is in UHD/HLG - but only 2.0 audio.
Regular BBC linear is HD with 5.1 audio.
ITV coverage - usual HD and 2.0 tops - at least they have colour.

Disney+
 
Watch out for fireworks at Disney + Mr Inger has two years to turn it around my guess is ESPN and Hulu ( which they may have to buy out from Comcast) are in the firing line , along with price rises ,sign up for the longest deal you can get , if you want to save money over the next year or so. The start of the death of the streamers :erm: going to Walt Disney world for a seasonal break with family. :D
