This TV you've ever seen - BBC News

If you have no desire to once again look to the New Year’s holiday film “Magicians”, every 15 minutes, interrupted by annoying ads, then the solution is found. Fortunately, modern technology can spend their leisure time much better quality – namely, interactive television technology. We met with the service “Interactive TV” provided by “Rostelecom” in almost all regions of Russia.

To start list the main differences between “Interactive TV” from the ordinary (besides the fact that the signal is transmitted through the ip-network). First, you can use it to watch at times, and even dozens of times more channels than conventional broadcast television provides. Secondly, these channels are broadcast in digital and HD quality. Third, in the console built a sort of “time machine” that allows at any moment put the transmission pause, and then continue watching from the same place. And that’s not all.

To use the service, you need a special set-top box, the standard model which when connected to the January 31, 2014 Rostelecom provides customers free shares. Comes with clear and visual instructions, so if you want to be able to cope with the connection even a novice. If there is no desire to mess himself – is not a problem, the experts of “Rostelecom” to connect and configure your router console and TV for free.

scheme hook up is very simple. Particularly noteworthy is the remote. Using a special command you can configure it and it will simultaneously control and TV, and attachment. Pleased that the number of buttons is minimized, leaving only the necessary. Control of such a curious shape that he just wanted to put the chin or scratch them back. Apparently, for all that it is called universal.

Immediately after the prefix the user gets to the start page “Interactive TV”. In principle, you can start browsing directly from there simply by selecting one of the available for viewing at the moment of television or movies “video rental” (more about it – just below). But “look that give” as the etheric TV – it’s not for us, because it is TV-interactive, so feel free to click “Menu” in front of us – a lot of opportunities.

All available channels are found under the “TV”: select the target and begin viewing. However, their more than 200, and quickly decide on such a variety, it may be difficult. Therefore vopolzuemsya search.

If right now is nothing interesting (it’s hard to believe with the number of channels, but you never know), then one click away “right” to view the program schedule selected channel for the whole day. By the way, the Electronic Program Guide is available for the week ahead.

While watching TV transmission is still interactive – click “OK”, and right over the picture, a list of channels. From it, by the way, you can add channels to “favorite”.

But it is not important “magic”. There is a button on the remote control “pause”: it allows you to stop at any time to view, and then resume from any point. Moreover, you can even rewind transfer back – if you, for example, were distracted from the screen just at the moment when your team scored a goal. You can simply write the transfer, but you can give the command console to record all issues. Same name option is available directly to the menu, which is caused by pressing the “up”. Recorded so transmission can then be found in the section “My” and view convenient for you.

“show archive” lets you watch TV, have already passed on the air for the last three days. This is perhaps one of the most convenient features. And what’s new hire and most grossing movies and TV shows you can go to the section “Video rental” and not have to run to buy the discs. In the library of more than 1,500 movies rated series, including HD and 3D, a list which is updated weekly. If you are looking for something specific, use the special “Search.” We all know that you can watch TV, but you can still sing. The service is provided for selecting Karaoke nearly 2,000 most popular songs of different genres.

We, the parents, always worried that children are watching on TV in our absence, and “Parental Control” here will be very helpful. Services include in “Settings” menu, you can restrict children’s access to films and programs with age ratings and up 3 +, 6 + and above, etc., to establish how much time a day you can watch TV. And if a channel, in your opinion, is not worth watching at all, you can completely block access to it:

And for dessert – exchange rates, Yandex.maps information about traffic jams and even news in social networks (supported “VKontakte”, Facebook, Twitter and “Moi Mir@Mail.Ru”).

On the TV screen, you can share experiences about watching – “layknut” favorite movie or program, after which the information will be displayed in VKontakte and Facebook, Twitter, or “My World”.

Finally, no need to go to the office to connect and disconnect services, channel packages, recognize the account balance. Now you can control your own home – directly from the TV screen with the remote. We are all familiar with, that you can watch TV on the television screen. But here, “Interactive TV” breaks stereotypes.

If you currently do not want to sit in front of a TV, and want to sit comfortably on the couch with a laptop or watch any channel outside of the house where there is Internet access, now it can be done quickly and easily! Subscribers “Interactive TV” can watch free channels bought, video and online portal zabava.ru on your computer. The most interesting thing is that putting a pause on the TV screen, you can continue watching from the same point in a TV online at zabava.ru. Frankly, this is a truly entertaining!
