Virgin Media TiVo gets an iOS app, adds BBC iPlayer catch-up streams
The Virgin Media TiVo isn't done adding new features, as a staff member revealed that starting today the box has access to catch-up content from BBC's iPlayer. That comes just a few days after it followed up the launch of an Android remote DVR scheduling app with one for the iPhone, so some of the predictions we'd heard earlier may be coming true. The iPlayer links should be live now, hit the source link to grab the app from iTunes.
Canal+ launches Catch-up TV video-on-demand service
By now, we've all heard of Start Over (right?), but Canal+ is introducing some new terminology overseas with its Catch-up TV service. For Le Bouquet subscribers that own a Dual-S set-top-box with an ADSL connection and an external hard drive (got all that?), they can seemingly enjoy programming aired earlier on-demand without having to worry over "traditional timetables and reruns." Generally speaking, a show stays available for between seven days and a month after it's first shown, and of course, this material will all be delivered via broadband. Not a bad sounding setup, if we should say so ourselves.[Via BroadbandTVNews]
