“...Netgem TV is the first TV service in Europe to bring TikTok to the large screen: adding the fastest growing video service to the living room, starting in the UK with TalkTalk, is a not only a testament to our agility, but also at the heart of our positioning of always bringing the most relevant content to consumers without having to systematically pay more.”
TalkTalk has partnered with Netgem to deliver a new 4K TV box to its fibre customers.
Customers can access more than 70 channels and on-demand players through the Netgem TV interface including Netflix and Prime Video. The TalkTalk TV 4K Box is available on new and existing fibre plans.

(In the first quarter of 2022, NetgemTV is thus the first multi-screen TV streaming platform to integrate the TikToK service on its boxes as part of the TalkTalk deployment.)

Finally, TikTok @ large screen in Europe!!!
How the TalkTalk TV 4K Box compares:
https://www.talktalkgroup.com/article/talktalkgroup/2022/TalkTalk-rolls-out-new-4K-TV-Box
TalkTalk has launched a new set-top box, dubbed TalkTalk TV 4K Box, for new and existing customers with its fibre broadband plans. The 4K TV Box arrives with access to 70 terrestrial channels as well as 30 on-demand services and streaming apps, including the likes of Netflix, Prime Video, and YouTube. Connected via Wi-Fi, the box can be used to pause, rewind and record live television …but you’ll need to connect an external hard-drive to store all of the footage as there’s no built-in storage.
RépondreSupprimerThe TalkTalk TV 4K Box ships with a remote with voice control capabilities, so you can search for your favourite shows, movies and apps with a quick voice command. TalkTalk is relying on Amazon’s chatty AI assistant Alexa to power this functionality, so those who already have an Amazon Echo smart speaker or two, you’ll be immediately familiar with how this voice-activated helper works. Searching with Alexa will hunt across all streaming services.
Just like the latest hardware from Sky and Virgin Media, TalkTalk TV 4K Box supports shows and movies in 4K Ultra High Definition. Some streaming services, like Prime Video and Disney+, include support for 4K Ultra HD as standard as long as your set-top box supports the format. However, Netflix locks this ultra-crisp picture quality behind its priciest subscription tier, dubbed Netflix Premium, which costs £15.99 a month – almost £10 more than the Basic plan (£6.99).
TalkTalk TV 4K Box is also the first set-top box that supports TikTok. Until now, the only way to watch your favourite TikTok clips on the big screen was using a Samsung-branded Smart TV. But with the arrival of the TalkTalk TV 4K Box, that all changes.
The latest set-top box is designed by Netgem, which works with a number of other broadband providers in the UK to bring on-demand content and live television to broadband plans.
However, there are other options on the market. For example, Amazon’s critically-acclaimed Fire TV range has access to more streaming services, games, and apps – and can be bought with a one-off payment. Of course, you’ll need to rely on apps like BBC iPlayer and ITV hub to watch live channels, and there’s no ability to record boxsets. However, with the wide range of on-demand shows and films available at a tap… and with prices for the Fire TV range starting from just £29.99, it could be a much more affordable option.
Likewise, Roku offers a number of brilliant set-top boxes with access to the most popular streaming services, including BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All4, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, and more, as well as its own exclusive Roku Channel, which is home to boxsets and movies for free.

RépondreSupprimerAfter 8 1/2 years on air, the seventh national Freeview multiplex was switched off at 11:00 on Thursday. With it went over half a dozen channels.
Channels including BBC News HD, FreeSports, Quest HD and PBS America+1 are no longer available. In addition, Forces TV and CBS Justice have now closed on all platforms.
Viewers switching on to most of the closed channels will see an error message, such as ‘no signal’ or ‘channel unavailable’. This also affects viewers with a YouView box (BT or TalkTalk TV).
Viewers must now retune to ensure they continue to have access to all remaining channels available in their area.
The multiplex – COM7 – was set up as a temporary multiplex using frequencies that would only be available for a limited time. With a mix of HD and SD channels, it was designed to encourage uptake of TVs with in-built DVB-T2 tuners. Older TVs and boxes would never be able to receive the signal. But its coverage was limited, never reaching more than around 75% of UK households.

TalkTalk TV 4K streaming box (by Netgem) will be the fast alternative to talktalk viewers with the old YouView box HD...! ;)
