How do internet channels work?
I'm going to record Occupied "live" on Sky Arts on my TalkTalk Youview box having watched the first 2 on sky on demand from Youview (thankyou) . I wondered how internet channels work? Does it stream it (so my house internet takes a hot at that time?)

The information I've posted is correct. TT always build in 0.5Mbps headroom. 3Mbps is for on demand content only. not live TV.
A "Standard TT" Boost means anything not Sky. Sky Boosts take 1Mbps more than the standard ones and even then are not guaranteed.
Thanks for help, I have 2 teenagers complaining about bandwidth constantly so needed to know what hit I take when recording. I could stream on excellent new sky on demand via TT but that's at a prime time for their use of MY bandwidth, Hope BT get superfast near me soon!
Be a handy improvement to get internet channels recorded out of hours and left in your recordings?????
Your welcome Richard.

which bears out your posting above, except TalkTalk do say 'over 5', though whether this means 6 or just 5.001 is not recorded :-)
The magic incantation to dispel misinformation, by the way, is the good old Wikipedia 'Citation please'.
This has the merit of working both ways, though if Visionman does come up with a definitive citation, I guess we still have to then ask TalkTalk which is correct, and which is indeed the misinformation?
