Re: Sky Anytime
There are two parts
Sky Anytime for the 'basic' channels (Sky 1/Sky Living etc). This is currently XL customers only
Sky Anytime for Sky Movies (and soon Sky Sports). This is available to customers with M/M+/L or XL as long as they subscribe to the appropriate Sky Premium channels
I expect it'll be the 'basic' content that next year will be avaliable to M+ and L customers

Re: Sky Anytime
I can see Sky Movies and Sports now have categories or A to Z options but on my Tivo Sky Anytime (on TV XL) still has a long list so is the same change going to be applied to the Sky Anytime channel lists?.
Just accessed the Sky One list and could only go down 2 pages before it gave up (down to Julia Davis's Little Cracker!), basically I cannot see what is below that on the list as Tivo just stops scrolling down. I see at the bottom of the 2nd page "Kathy Burke's Little Cracker (series1)" in darker grey which usually means it is the next item at the top of the next page of programmes available but if I try and go 1 down on the list I just get nothing and the message "No programmes Currently Available".
The list shows the programmes in alphabetical order so surely must be more programmes past "J"!!
Is this a fault or just what is there right now? Can anybody else check please and report what they can see on the Sky One list?

Re: Sky Anytime
It's a fault, but comparing with other people may well mislead you, unless they are also in Nottingham. Each region is updated separately so they can be in different states.
To work round the fault, try skipping to the end of the list with ->| then page backwards.

Ah! a fault then. Tried -> as suggested, got to the end of the Sky One list and managed to go 1 page up then no more. So can see the first 2 and last 2 pages of programmes. What is between them (between J and P) is a mystery to me right now!
Not a key issue for me right now but just spotted I could not access everything that could be avaialbe, willw ait for a fix which hopefully will incude be a proper menu structure.

Assume this is going out by region? Just Sky1, Sky Living, Sky Arts and Sky News in there for me.

I believe it is. I'm still struggling with the menus in "on demand" here in Scotland too. In order to find movies I use the browse function and if I see something I want to watch I can view it, or if it isn't available in "on demand" I set it to record and continue to browse. Found some real good films this way.

Assuming Plymouth didn't get done in the end, and it's not just an issue with my box?

Found this out after I posted. At the moment I believe it's Areas 20-31 only (ex-ntl), however there should be another update tonight for areas 01-18 (ex-Telewest) which means it should be available from tomorrow onwards
