Catch up not working On android tv with youview
I can't get the youview catch up facility to work. The menu scrolls back in time ok but when I select a program marked with the play arrow I'm just thrown Bach to the current program being broadcast live on that channel. Anybody got any suggestion that would resolve this issue. My broadband works ok and I can play the iPlayer as an app but not through youview.

Hi @Davidddt77 and welcome to the community,
I am just looking into this for you and hope to come back to you shortly (unless someone else on the forum has experience with this issue and beats me to it of course :)).
Cheers,
Cass

Hi again @Davidddt77,
Have you tried the steps outlined on the YouView Troubleshooting Guide yet? If not, here are the steps for the Why is my On Demand player not working? section:
To use the On Demand player, you'll need to have the latest Sony TV software. To check this, make sure your TV is connected to the Internet then follow these instructions.
Click for instructions:
Standard remote
1. Press the HELP button.
2. Navigate down and select System Software Update.
3. Choose Check for a system software update. If an update is available your TV will start to download it.
Touchpad remote
1. Press the HOME button.
2. Scroll down to the Settings section and choose Help.
3. Scroll down and select System Software Update.
4. Choose Check for a system software update. If an update is available your TV will start to download it.
Let me know how you get on.
Thanks,
Cass

I have the same problem, internet connection checks out ok, all apps connect ok and have installed latest software and re-booted TV, still no catch up facility on the Youview guide. Am deeply frustrated with this and considering taking a hammer to it!

Where do you live?
If you are in Scotland, you have to use the STV player instead of the ITV one.

I live in South Wales and cannot find a fix for this problem.

OK, not Scotland then.
I am assuming you have tuned your TV to the broadcast channels? The itv region that you will be served is driven off this, so the tuning is needed.
There was initially an issue where YouView apparently thought that some bits of England and Wales were in Scotland, but that should be over long ago. Though you can check this by seeing if you can access STV.
But whatever, as this is seemingly a problem with the YouView software, I suggest you log on to the YouView forum and raise the issue there, where the developers of the software may be able to give you more specific help.

Same problem here. Been on to Sony support Two months later and still being told they are waiting for someone to look into it Very disappointing from what I previously regarded as a good company
