Seems like not much new from ITVN/XTV. The schedule is the same movies over and over. Any idea if they plan to get any new content? Or are they going to go the way of Voom...

I know

Now it is JUNE


And the screens still show things coming in MARCH

I think, between old content, repeat content and the BUFFER problems everyone is reporting, and FabianC is not responding to, they should at least, refund a month or two until they get the new stuff working.

I've stayed an extra 3 months now due to promises on the screens for new channels and 'promises' told to Satelliteguys here by ITVN

Same here. I stayed and stayed to the wife's dismay. We loved it for the first few months but then nothing new. The service as it is now, is worth maybe $12 - $15 / mo at most.

No buffer problems with FIOS. I did have issues with Comcast, but its likely they were dropping packets.

I still like the service, but way too many repeats. Still only one LiveTV channel (MAV TV -- but I'll get this channel with my FIOS TV).

Hey Sat Guys ...

I apologize for not keeping up on the boards. As many of you already know from Sat Expo we're working on expanding our entertainment package to include a wide selection of programming. Back in February we announced Pulse, the first IPTV music video network. If everything goes as planned, you may see the official beta launch as early as tonight! Keep your eyes peeled ;)

More news soon!


Scott, if you catch this post, shoot me an email. I have something I want to show you. :D

Looks like I will be cancelling my subscription. Just no new content... same movies/shows over and over again. Seems like the same problem Voom had when it first went to Dish.

Hopefully they will add new content in the future, as I really did like the service. It works great with FIOS (no buffering or server unavailable issues).

They should lower the monthly cost since they keep showing the same stuff over and over..

Did this happen? Or is it more vaporware? The post was from 6/2/2006

While I have noticed some new Adult Channel names none of the new features are here yet. I really want the music video channel and the karaoke function. I could care less about Starz.

So where is this update?? My screen still says coming March 2006. :(

An update PLEASE Fabian.

Scott , you still have your box? I thought you might have given up like many of us. My wife was asking if we were going to get it back WOW! NICE! but the cost vs the use/offeringsis still way out of whack to me. Are you thinking that now too?

Yeah, I turned mine back as well. They really need to expand their content. I was looking forward to some more LiveTV channels, as well as the music channels. Who knows when/if they will show up.

If I spent all my time watching porn it would be a great service. But honestly I havent turned it on in months. And I only turned it on to see if the update was available.

I am told they just added 800 new movies to the adult side of things, but again I really dont care about the porn. I want the music videos and karaoke feature.

Yep I only watch it for 10 minutes or so at a time. :)

So I will be cancelling it this weekend. I was really hoping FabianC would chime in since he promised an update/firmare etc almost a month ago. They really should have a news page on the service.

Hey Guys...

I had XTV since last October; however, never watched it alot. I cancelled as of July 7th....tired of waiting on promises which may or maynot come true. If they get their act together, I will join back up. That is, as long as they enhance their communication skills also.
