Back up here also.

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

Does anyone have any problems with trying to watch shows, like Grand Designs on TV3 on Catch-Up? We do not get an option to select Watch on Catch-Up.

Most TV3 shows that we like to watch have no 'Record' or Catch-Up. Have to use the Three Now App on VTV (which does work really well). TV3 movies - you are on your own. Not sure about TVNZ re movies.
This is a rights issue - TV3 won't allow Vodafone to give us that option. Shows I can understand - they want us to watch their ads on Three Now. Movies???? Not too sure there. Seems to be pushing people towards illegal downloads.
Might change once the new ownership of TV3 settles in, whenever that is likely to happen.

When the box needs to be powered off to restart it can we have it default back whatever channel it was on previously.. rather than resettinng back to tv1

I'm surprised you need to reboot it at all. The most I ever need to do to get it back going if it's stopped is change the channel (Unless there's an outage? Or obscure issue with HDMI or your network)

Wife had severe pixelation issues with Tipping Point on One yesterday afternoon, and pauses at around 2230 last night on channel 21.

@sansom I’m unable to play any programs on iPad that I have recorded. They push to TV fine.

An example one is Bull S04E20 recorded off Prime. When I select watch program, a red circle just comes up in centre of iPad, goes round and round, and nothing else happens.

Thanks if you’re able to have a look, iPad is connected to same Network as Vodafone TV.

Is snow normal? Sometimes when I boot up the box the TV recognises that it is connected - with input and display res - but only displays snow. Have to power cycle VTV to get it back to normal.

Are you using the supplied HDMI cable? Or a third party one?
