Tv on the go
All you need is a WiFi, 3G, 4G or broadband connection in the UK

Or is this just referring to the sky sports/movie channels, only it doesn't make it clear.
It is misleading though.

3G/4G allows management of TiVO boxes only.

The important bit is in the T&C's at the bottom of the page:

"On the go – Virgin TV Anywhere, Sky Movies & Sky Sports: UK only. Maximum 2 devices. Selected content may not be available to view. Virgin TV Anywhere: Content available to view depends on TV package. Not all channels from relevant pack available. Live streaming and On Demand available in the UK with broadband or WiFi internet access only. Access via PC, Mac or TV Anywhere App (TiVo customers only). TiVo tools for TiVo customers only. Minimum 800Kbps recommended per device accessing the service concurrently."

Can anyone also ask me why you need to have a wire plugged all the time into into your tivo box in order to stream tv channels on your mobile phone? yet sky plus doesnt need this? its not as if we can watch recordings from our tivo box so why does it need to be plugged in?

Re: Is TVAnywhere soon to be available on 3G?
 

You don't.

That is only needed when using the app as a remote control.

Vince, the streaming channels are available on your phone or tablet regardless of whether you have your TiVo networked or not. The only benefit of having your TiVo networked is that you can use your device as a remote control.

Well I never how stupid of me! Thanks very much you two. Never got it working before. Just a shame it's not on 3G otherwise work would be a lot more fun for me tomorrow

It's backwards that it's not on 3g/4g, but thats virgin for you.

Re: Is TVAnywhere soon to be available on 3G?
 

is there a technically reason for it????

Re: Is TVAnywhere soon to be available on 3G?
 

In a word 'no'. They could enable 3G/4G streaming if they wished.

Re: Is TVAnywhere soon to be available on 3G?
 

I don't think they've paid for streaming rights, that's the problem.

I used to have Sky Sports streaming as a freebie from Orange, but the quality was unwatchable.

Re: Is TVAnywhere soon to be available on 3G?
 

I can watch sky sports streaming on 3/4G. Quality is decent these days! But to be fair I'm on 4G these days
