Ok I do not understand why I can not access the CTV go app
I am trying and trying to understand and find out how to watch the ctv streaming app. There is not even a place for videotron users to log in from on the site. Is that normal? Before I switched to He...
Hi! While Videotron subscribers are currently unable to log into CTV's own streaming service, you should most definitely have access to their on-demand content on your Helix terminal. Press on the "Helix" button, go to "On-demand", navigate to the right to "Channels". You will then be able to select "CTV" and see their on-demand content. Else, you can also do a voice search for your favorite show and see if it's available on-demand.
This being said, you can also access on-demand content from lots of channels online through the helix.videotron.com website or through the Helix mobile app.
This is a joke. Offering 3-4 shows on their "CTV on-demand" channel is more insulting tôme than not having the channel at all. A real slap in the face. And they keep giving that BS that they don't have a "deal" with Bell and yet, we can use the CTV app to watch the current episodes of most shows. Some shows, like soaps, we can even go all the way back to last September, but others, we can't watch even the one before the current one? They're not making sense. If they have the rights to show them on CTV or CTV2 and on the app, why can't they show them on Helix?
I even called them years ago when I didn't have Helix, to ask them why Videotron was not listed as a provider on the CTV app, and the answer I was given was that I should have a Helix account and then I could see them on-demand. So a few months later, I did and lo and behold, there it was, CTV on demand, so I went there, all excited, and I only saw 3-4 shows. Like, seriously?
- It’s best to subscribe Bell to watch bell media channels. Pretty decent on-demand section plus 30hr for almost every program except the scheduled slot for NFL and maybe a few other sports events too, but definitely no worry for FIFA and Masters. Does Bell channels have the full 3-day Replay function on Vidéotron?
Oddly, TVA has a large Bell on-demand section. But it seems none of Quebecor channels support 30hr Restart on Bell, with a basic playback buffer for up to 1.5h from the tuned-in time spot.
