Catch-up

Catch-up is used to go back to something previously aired and watch it. This is something that some providers offer. If you have it, there will be a clock icon on the channel guide behind the channel name. Simply click on the channel, press left on your select button and hold it down, and it will scroll back in time so you can find older programs.

First, you will have to go to Settings > Playlists, click on your playlist and scroll down to Catch-up to turn it on. There are 3 "type" options; you may need to test these to see what works best for you, or just set it to auto and let the app find the type for you.

There’s also a duration in days option. The more days you choose, the bigger your app file will be, taking up more storage on your device. Start by just setting it to 1 day. Most providers will only have 24-48 hour catch-up. If you want to know how far back you can go, increase the number of days, update your playlist, and then update your EPG. Go to a catch-up channel and scroll back to a past program and see if it plays. There’s really no need to save the EPG past the days the catch-up will play.

Note

Your playlist may show the clock (indicating the channel has catch-up), but it still may not work. This is a provider issue and not this app. You can try changing the Catch-up type or switch between MPEG-TS and HLS.
