Sorry if this is asked before but why does BBC programmes links on catch up on demand not work, the only way to watch them is with the Iplayer app!

Hi DT3,

From what I understand, the BBC requested that all of our BBC On Demand content was run through their iPlayer App as opposed to our On Demand service.

Kind Regards

In what respect?

Normally you should always end up at the programme you want to watch in the iPlayer app. If you end up in the root of the iPlayer app it's because the programme listing has yet tied into the specific catch up programme i.e. it's not on purpose

I've yet to find one that does if the programme has been on recently, within 24 hours at least

Sorry I am confused, if you go to Catch Up on demand section the links for BBC programmes don't go nowhere let alone the root of the IPlayer app!

Hi DF,

Here is the route,

Home> Catch Up & On Demand> Catch Up TV On Demand>All Days> yesterday

All listed BBC programes in this section, the links send you back to the TiVo homepage, the strange thing is back on the homepage it is still previewing the on demand preview show's in the top right corner:confused:

Also if you go to All channels> BBC Iplayer it will go back to the home TiVo menu, it seems that non of the links work using these routes on TiVo!

Ah, I think there is a fault ticket for that... let me try my TiVo and see if I get the same thing........ BRB

EDIT: ok no mine is ok it goes to the BBC iPlayer programme and lets me play the asset.

Yeah we raised a ticket on Sunday for that issue, only happening on some TiVo box's, but I'm not back in until tomorrow so will check the ticket. Can you confirm you can play ITV/Ch4 and 5 programmes ok?
