In the “ Movies ” tab, you can rent a movie for a specific time. The developers promise to make a recording function.
The transmission quality can be adjusted. Channels are shown even with a weak Internet, but the image quality is reduced. Channel switching is carried out by the program guide in the main menu, or through quick access from the channel grid. In the app, channels are displayed as logos, which makes it difficult to view channels that have not been watched. If you need to find out on which channel and when the program you need is on, you can use “ Search ” in the TV channel grid.
Media Library section displays films rented; they can be viewed during the rental period. These films can be used as in regular players. You can rent films in the section appropriately titled “ Movies ”. There is no set price listed here as it depends on the type of film. You can watch the film as much as you like, but no more than two days. In addition, the film can be purchased on a computer and watched on a smartphone, which is quite convenient.
It is better to subscribe to television channels in the menu sections. They are paid for every day, so you don’t have to pay for a long period at once, and it’s not even recommended.
