Is your UKTV still working fine since the UK updated to UK Summer Time in March? My EPG is still an hour wrong. Anyway to fix it do you know thanks?

I think the answer to that is yes and no. The live stuff is at the right time, but the 'catch-up' isn't. I have to click along the time scale ruler-looking thing along the bottom of the screen at roughly when the programme was shown until I find it and then double left-click to see it from the beginning. I managed to watch the first FA Cup semi that way and I also go back to watch or record Masterchef on BBC 1 that is shown at around 1.30 am here. It's all a bit hit and miss, but the stuff is there to be found.

The really odd thing is there is no way to contact the people behind the service, and that it is free. Why? Who? But it's great. I personally mostly just watch the news and football, and I'm happy with the BBC football preview shows so have no need to pay for Sky on internet tv, and I pay a few hundred baht a month for True's football package for all the matches I want. ITV is showing all the England WC matches, and even friendlies. So, 600 a month gives me all I need.

Thanks for confirmation. It was the catch up I referred to sorry I missed that point. So I'll wait five months for the clocks to change back and it'll all be good again. Until then I got used to clicking catch up show in EPG and then using 5 minutes forward button 12 times!

There are quite a few solutions to your issue.

 

You could start complaining to the UK government that the summer/winter time is a bad idea and that it confuses your tv schedule.

 

You could also contact BBC and demand that they get thing in order.

 

A third solution could be that you get a paid subscription, though all those that show BBC in Thailand are illegal.

 

But the most important, which you should keep in mind, and which you seem to forget is

This UKTV app is really good,I was confusing it with another app

also called UKTV, 

 

It seems to be exactly/nearly the same as EXPAT TV, which is

at least 600 THB p.m. so for free its a no brainer,and its great

you can go back 10 days,so you can watch Prime time Tv in UK

at a sensible time here in thailand.

 

Just hope it lasts.
