The Giro Highlights On DMAX Channel ?

[Mike_P]

TBH difficult to see any difference. Wouldn't say either was especially fuzzy, obviously could be to do with any upscaling built in the PVRs; an elderly Humax Freesat and a factory refurbished Panasonic Freeview one along with what the LG TV might have, a 43 inch new last year.

That's the one that brings up the subscription screen. What TV or box are you using?

Have you logged in? !

Have you logged in? !

The TV is always logged in. It won't open any apps before you do.

I don't know if this is the appropriate thread for rants about the D+ app, but on my Sky box it keeps forgetting that I have a login, and I have to go to a website and enter a device code to re enable it. For another couple of weeks until it forgets again

I tuned in at 7pm via the app. Only 576p picture quality for live highlights. I might just stay a day behind to get the 1080p stream.

It is indeed low quality I can't normally tell much difference between SD and hd on 39 inch TV but you can tell the quality isn't brilliant

Yep, it's not great.

It's also the fact that the adverts are in better resolution than the actual program🤣

farking Dmax has jumped off.my. Freeview channel list today 😵‍💫

Done a retune to get it back

Rather than wait a day I opted to watch it on the small 32" TV.

Well I've been watching the "live" highlights on DMax ok. Freeview channel 39. The studio pics are low quality but the cycling pic seems acceptable. For some reason, although I'm recording the highlights, I'm still sitting through the "live" adverts.

I did try to login via my Amazon Firestick to watch catchup that way but despite having an account (free) it came up with a pay wall. The catchup appears to be free on my PC

 

[albion]

No paywall, you simply click though. I am not even sure if I even needed to log into the Discovery app.

I did that the other night! I only remembered on the last break, which I then skipped.
