Hmmm, rxtvinfo.com has got a story about Sky Glass subscribers being the first to get HD streaming versions of the BBC regions in the very near future. I initially thought that the HD versions of the other channels might be for Glass users as well to tempt people to purchase Glass - but if this is the case why would a device that has no satellite connection need dummy entries in the satellite EPG/SDT?

Cad:

Short answer, no.

Although many Freeview boxes and smart TVs have an iPlayer app intalled out of the box, all iPlayer content is delivered over the Internet.

If you have a mobile contract with unlimited data you could use the iPlayer app on the phone and Chromecast the picture to a suitably equipped TV. It's still using the Internet, but via your phone.

Lynn Simpson : Sky (the owners of the Pick brand), have closed the Pick+1 channel and it is no longer broadcasting. The closure happened on the 31st March. I don't think Sky have said much about why they've closed it.

Maureen Browning:

The Freesat 4K set top box does have a Netflix app, but as of the date of posting it does not have a Discovery+ app.

As Chris says, the box needs to be connected to the internet. This can be done either by WiFi or a cable to the router.

If a way can't be found to prevent random bots posting random garbage to the site, it looks like it's the end of the road.
Would it be possible to add an "I'm not a robot" verification tick box to the "Post your comment" button?
