I will re-subscribe in time for that, probably keep until after Christmas taking in the 2 rounds of Premier League, then cancel again.

Cannot stand watching S4C with Welsh commentary.

I love S4C, free live soccer. Matches don't get bigger than Cefn Druids v Bala.

Re: Amazon / Autumn Internationals

I believe that customers who have the Tivo box will not be able to watch them because Amazon Prime does not work on the Tivo boxes, despite Prime having its own EPG number. Correct?

Re: Amazon / Autumn Internationals

I was almost interested in this, then I realised its Rugby .... and lost interest.

I see they do have some football again at the end of November, and December.
I generally get prime for a month covering Christmas, so I'll likely do the same again this year.

(Unless they offer a good yearly deal again for Black Friday/Cyber Monday).

Re: Amazon / Autumn Internationals

EPG number just points to the app and clearly states V6 only

Thank you for that.

I think it's really bad that Amazon Prime is not available to Tivo customers. Netflix is so why not Amazon Prime as well, given that Amazon Prime has its own EPG number.

It is down to app stability and minimum requirements for each device.

A bit like when apps are dropped from older iPads or iPhones due to them no longer being compatible

Really, Prime is stable enough on SkyQ - perhaps money might have been a factor?

SkyQ & V6/360 boxes all have more oomph than the basic TiVo which is nearing 10 year old hence it is unlikely money is the factor.

It's stable enough on the V6 - it is down to the older hardware.

Re: Amazon / Autumn Internationals

Wasn't Amazon Prime made available on the EPG when they first started showing live Premier League, and that Tivo customers were able to access Amazon at that point?

Also it's worth stating that the box I have is less than five years old and Netflix is available to Tivo customers so I see no reason as to why Amazon Prime is not.

The TiVos don't have enough memory to run Amazon. Yours may be 5 years old, but the design is now 12 years old.
