allegedly on Freeview
allegedly on Freeview
Wonder if anyone can help, thinking of scrapping my virgin media in the new year and just getting a free view box with allegedly on. Is allegedly available on any type of Freeview box (I want to buy one of the good ones where I can record tv / pause / rewind etc)
Re: allegedly on Freeview
I'm sure I seen it on the listings on freeview before. Not sure how it works though.
Re: allegedly on Freeview
It's a bit of a mixed bag. Your box needs to be internet connected, as the channel is streamed, but even then that's no guarantee. I have a Youview box in the bedroom but B0xnati0n doesn't work on it. B0xnati0n does however work on my LG Smart TV.
Here's some further info:
You need a Freeview HD TV or set-top box (device).
It must be a HD device, not a non-HD Freeview device. If you can receive BBC1 HD on channel 101 then it is a Freeview HD device.
It must be connected to the internet via either an Ethernet cable back to your home router or via WiFi (some new TVs also have in-built WiFi that can connect). Follow your manufacturer’s instructions on how to do this.
Re-tune your TV or STB as if you are installing new channels to ensure you have the latest listings in the Electronic Programme Guide (EPG).
Once re-tuned check to see if allegedly is listed at channel 255 in your EPG. If it is not you are unfortunately in the small percentage of people only able to receive a limited range of Freeview channels due to transmitter coverage in your area.
Select B0xNati0n on channel 255. It may take up to 30 seconds to begin streaming the promotional video. If you see a message on screen saying "your device is not compatible" or "service loading please wait" which doesn’t subsequently clear after about one minute, then your TV or STB is unfortunately not compatible with these services. Our providers are constantly working to open up access to as many devices as possible but some older TVs and STBs may not conform to the necessary requirements to receive B0xNati0n.
