How does rogers anyplace tv work

Hopefully it will come soon and not take 5 months like last time, which he stated they thought had only impacted a minority of users who rely on that feature. I am going to walk from this topic until new things come and hopefully it comes soon and rolls out well. I haven't yet evaluated what things are on demand and live on the site, as I didn't use it for that much anyway.

So guess the decision involved a bit of risk analysis of how much inconvenience it would create for certain groups. Now give a message that says. Seriously, this is and you want me to use Windows to view web content? This is beyond stupidity, just incompetent IT people.

Hello Fabian and Welcome to the Community! Are you getting this error on the website or the app? Any specific channels the error is restricted to? I also have the same problem as Fabian. Using the Roger's website on computer with Windows 8. It never does load. I have cleared History, Cookies, etc and rebooted and still no go. Please advise. This content can only be viewed on your Rogers home Internet network. What has that to do with the Rogers Cable I pay for? Why do I have to have Rogers Internet?

Since you do not have the Rogers Internet connection consolidated with the Rogers Digital TV, as you use an alternative service, you have access only to those in the list. Not sure whether there are other speciality networks available this same way - TCM, I checked is not one - their on the go app is US provider based only. So have a look at that list to clarify which channels you can see at home on your Rogers Internet connection all are available, but some are on demand -catch up only, not live , and for those without Rogers Internet, the second list will provide the more limited channel set.

This is the same with Bell, and V-media - it is a licensing restriction, so Rogers either has chosen not to pay for access by paying the licensing which would mean a greater cost to us possibly , or the provider has declined to provide licensing access. This brings Rogers in line with what has been present with all the IPTV services that you have to be connected their Internet product to get the full access to their full TV channel subscription when off their marketed Internet packages.

For example the big competitor provides less channel access than you get at home, and if you don't have their Internet, you get that same reduced number of channels, with a larger number available on a device app if connected to WIFI on their Internet network at home. Hope that clarifies - it is one of those you find by digging into the fine print of the details, and the channel lists.

I have checked on all consoles and the Anyplace TV App isn't there. It's not available in the App store and is not found when a search is done. The Microsoft website gives advice on how to trouble shoot problems for Anyplace TV and Xbox but there is nothing explaining what to do if the App doesn't exist.

Without it I can only get cable television the TV hooked up to the Netbox. Can you please explain to me whats going on?? I' plan on cancelling my new subscription if the App is no longer available on the Xbox console. It does make sense that there is a restriction on what channels you can access when you are not on your home internet network.

Like CBC ch. Unfortunately that is that's way they defined it to operate whether we like it or not. All tied up with broadcasting agreements blackouts on modes of transmission. Anyplace TV is incredibly handy for TV on the go, so let's get it working for you! Are you receiving any error message when you try to log in? You can program your PVR using certain phone and tablet apps, but not your computer anymore.

Rogers says you will be able to "soon", but won't give a timeline. I'm guessing it's months away and low priority as more and more people are ditching their computers for smartphones.

Even if it comes, Rogers only favours a certain few browsers, so if you use Firefox, like me, it's not likely to happen. I'm well aware that a phone or tablet can be used. However, I used to fire up one browser to look up the programs on Zap2it and another to program the PVR. It worked very well. Now, I have to use another device, with a lot smaller display and only a touch screen to control it. It was much more convenient and a lot easier doing it on the computer.

Anyplace TV does not work for Chrome on Linux desktop. I don't have or want Windows. Please enable this. Strangely, when using Chrome on a Linux desktop the error page says "Browser Unsupported", then it unhelpfully suggests I use Chrome.

Update: I found a work-around. Launch Chrome with a different user agent. This works for me:. Web site does not work on Chrome running in Chrome OS. Receive following message - Browser Unsupported. Sorry this browser is not supported. This is Chrome running in Chrome OS version Receiving these type of error messages can get super annoying!

I really hope the issue has been resolved since your last post. If not, it looks like the NextBox may be having an issue with its 2-way connection. The App relies on the NextBox to stream the content. Please reboot the main NextBox in your home by removing the power wire for a full 10 seconds and then reconnect it.
