Well, as it stands I am sticking to my guns lol.

I am in Cardiff and I dont see any ITV player in the demand section. Not calling you guys liars, but until I recive this service the staff are ( kind of ) correct on what they told me.

Guess it's going to roll out in different areas at different dates and times maybe. But if you do have it, hope your enjoying it. Though i'm a wee bit gutted it's not in Cardiff yet lol.

Are you getting it through pressing the red button on ITV 1 ? Or are you going into the demand section and then going to catch up tv / tv channels ?

If not, how are you getting to view ITV player ? And when you say no tv choice, do you mean there are no programs yet to view under the ITV on demand section ?

I can get it through Catch up tv on demand.

ITV stuff in catchup, here in Plymouth. There's also a channel for it in TV Choice, but no programmes as yet.

By the way, doesn't "ITV Net Player" feel so contrived? Why isn't it just ITV Player?

Looks like they are rolling it out across the network bit by bit. Can't see them launching it in just ex Telewest areas and not the ex ntl: areas. VM seem to be an all or nothing for their new launches these days.

No ITV Net Player here yet in Aylesbury/Watford on ex-NTL/ex-CW with Pace standard V Box. Perhaps it is a geographical rollout or perhaps it is a platform (i.e. ex-NTL, ex-Telewest) issue. If you are posting an "I do/don't have it yet" remark then please specifiy location, platform (i.e. ex-NTL, ex-Telewest), if you know it, and even STB type. Thanks.

Maybe they named it ITV Net Player because ITV Player was too similar to iPlayer or maybe they just wanted it to sound internetty. I hate it - i-this and e-that and they don't always mean the same thing. My father in law mistakenly refers to High Definition as HDi because his Peugeot is a Diesel Injected and now cars and other things have e prefixes/suffixes because they are economical or environmentally friendly.

Perhaps (THIS THREAD) would be a more appropriate place to discuss whether or not you're getting the ITV Player yet.....

hint hint
