Newest Review: ... Fearne Cotton programme. At a push I will watch the Katie Price or Peter Andre shows, but they are not really my style. My complaints I have for ITV is not the actual ITV Player functionality nor the usability, but the actual content. ITV really do need to get some good quality programmes. In comparison to BBC and Channel 4, ITV doesnt even have 5% of my viewing time! The ITV Player site is actually really easy to navigate around and is definitely user friendly. On the home page, you get some show suggestions and get the list of what programmes have been watched most. When watching TV, my favourite category is without a doubt a good ... more

Premium Review itv.com/ITVPlayer/: Not alot of programmes I would like to catch up on! (372 words)

The ITV Player is not the best catch up system, as surely you would need to be able to watch the shows in the first place in order to miss them. There really isnt a huge choice of programmes that you can catch up on as the shows on ITV do not seem to be as interesting as those on other channels these days. The only programmes I tend to watch on ITV/ ITV2 these days are X Factor, Paris Hilton's BFF and the new Fearne Cotton programme. At a push I will watch the Katie Price or Peter Andre shows, but they are not really my style.

Premium Review ITV Player - Playing The Programmes You Miss (827 words)
by - written on 06/09/09 (Very useful, 159 readings)
Rating:

ITV Player follows in the footsteps of the BBC I-Player - an online service offering the opportunity to watch the shows you have missed for up to 28 days after they are first aired. For those without a DVD recorder of a VCR this service offers an excellent opportunity to catch up. This service was a new experience for me and having read several reviews as to the poor quality of the programmes screened I wasn't expecting an awful lot. However I made my way to ITV.co.uk and followed the link for ITV Player. The website is extremely accessible and very user friendly. The ITV Player link takes you to a sub site specifically adapted to allow the user to find the ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review itv.com/ITVPlayer/: An online video catch up service with problems (523 words)
by - written on 04/09/09 (Very useful, 78 readings)
Rating:

ITV Player is an online video on demand service offered by the UKs largest commercial broadcaster, ITV. The service is found at itv.com/itvplayer. It is a free service offered to everyone living in the UK. The video player used Microsoft Silverlight, a fairly new video processing technology competing against Adobe Flash player. Because Silverlight is still new compared to other video services, it sometimes has problems. Some people have trouble installing the service. This begs the questions 'Why are ITV using this service which many people seem to have problems with rather than using a proven service such as Adobe Flash?' ITV Player lets people ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Not worth it, really! (305 words)

No where near the standard of the BBC iplayer, not at all. You would think that this would be a neat little service, if you miss your favourite show, you recorder didn.t record for whatever reason, and it won't be repeated. Fine I'll watch it online. Or will I? Because for some odd reason, ITV put all of it's shows oline that nobody watches, maybe a few people, but then doesn't put on thee some of it's highest profile shows from the prime time slots, like the Bill for example. We went on holiday last week, set our digital recorder to record but there was a power cut, so it didn't. Now we can't even watch it online. I personally find that the ITV player isn't ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review itv.com/ITVPlayer/: ITV Player ~ straight out of the bargain basement (305 words)

ITV Player is ITV's version of the BBC Iplayer although there are some differences between the two. The player can be found on ITV's website:- www.itv.com and offers a 30 day catchup period on the shows that are available on the platform. As with the BBC version not every show that ITV transmits is available for later viewing on the player. Also, you are not able to download the programmes to your hard drive in the same way that you can on the BBC Iplayer. In theory then, the service is a bit similar to the BBC version. All well & good you would think. In practice it's a whole different kettle of fish. The site has endless problems ...  Read the complete review
