Apparently tablets 7" or under are classed as phones so won't display in landscape unless streaming.. Crazy

Am I right, or have I missed something?

I've got a NEXUS 7 tablet and it gets no problem displaying in landscape. Watching Napoli vs Swans atm. No doubt some of the more techy people on here will come up with screen sizes etc. It does ask when I click watch if you want watch on phone.

I have a Nexus 7 aswell, but when I want to watch something; it says it isn't connected to my TiVo. Anyway to solve this?

And you are definitely selecting a streaming channel to watch?

Aren't all channels (depending on your package) watchable on the app?

Nope - the up to 67 you can stream have an icon next to them, and can also be selected via the 'Streaming Channels' selection (via the settings on the phone version of the app)

The list is also here http://store.virginmedia.com/discove...app/watch.html

Cheers mate. I wasn't aware of that. I only tried the Ginx channel, but according to that list; you can only watch it on a box.

I registered mine as a phone, this was before it was updated to support KITKAT . When I go to a streaming channel and select watch, it gives the option to watch on TV or watch on phone. I select watch on phone and as my last post confirmed in landscape.


I'd check if you are able to make changes as it will advise if you have any left this month

That's how Google's app guidelines state that apps on 7" tablets should work.

It's ok now mate. I thought you could watch any/most channels on the app, but you can't. I tried watch channel 4, and everything was ok.

Do you or anyone else know how to what recordings on the app?

You can't watch recordings on the app
