    Default Foxtel Catch Up Movies

    Does anyone know the resolution of these?

    Is there any way to find out via the IQ2?
    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    I think Foxtel Anytime is still in SD resolution

    Although the Foxtel CEO did say late last year that Foxtel Anytime was going to go to HD in 2017 (question is if/when this might happen ?)

    I have not heard any reports that Foxtel Anytime is in HD yet ..... apart from some HD on Foxtel Play (& some SD) on the Telstra TV streaming device

    (I have not got an IQ2 to do any testing)

    Does Foxtel Anytime look any better lately on the IQ2 ?

    According to Foxtel staff on the Foxtel community forum, it all should be available in HD soon. Don't hold your breath.

    It is already possible to download content in HD, but rather than doing so through the Anytime section, Look Back is used.


    If a programme has aired on an HD channel within the last 24 hours, and the rights are available, if you highlight it in the TV Guide and press the record button it will download the show in HD and allow you to play it back.


    Bonus is available to subscribers with the PlatinumHD package so if you were to remove HD, the VOD channel would no longer be available.

    HD is expected to arrive for more IP-delivered content later this year.

    .................................................. .................................................. ................

    Sorry if 'later this year' was confusing, I just meant it's not expected to arrive by the end of next week, it will be later than that.


    When we know we'll be sure to share the details with you!


    Cheers, Tiny
