worst catch up platform
stv player cuts out all the time mostly when the commercials start stating no internet when there is and other programs still work Adverts start abd just before the end of the commercial break all stops working - error could not download the video Error Code PLAYER ERR TIMEOUT After refreshing page the ads start again and the same happens Useless Annoying Frustrating Get the problem fixed STV or you might as well stop running stv player as it isn t actually running

Truly scandalous that Scotland had to
Truly scandalous that Scotland had to use the worst streaming app on the planet STV should be ashamed of themselves for asking their customers to use such a poor product Their own standards and ambitions are clearly extremely low and projects a we really don t care attitude Pity you can t give negative ratings

Enfuriating app
I got to very near the end of a crime drama and the picture froze This diabolical app started the episode again at the very beginning and forced me to watch every ad break again before I could get back to where I left off It s a breathtakingly poor app I d give it zero stars if I could

Never will I use STV player or EVER buy
Never will I use STV player or EVER buy another McDonalds in my life after binging on The Family on STV player The set adverts would be fine but the stream CONSTANTLY crashes which means you have to start the show again if you re at the last 10 minutes of the show you cant just grudgingly watch a set of adverts and then resume roughly where you left off Nope you have to skip to just by each set of adverts and then watch all the adverts again in sequence till the last set then PRAY it doesn t crash again which it regularly does It often loves to crash just after you ve watch a set of advertsIt s not my gigabyte internet service I had this problem on 3 devices worst on my pico 3 as I lay in bed dying and hungover trying to watch the last two episodes which took me almost 2 hours each I drove by a McDonalds today and gagged after being subjected to so many McDonalds adverts I assume it s a similar gig to youtube where they rake in pennies per watch Funnily early on in the series at I was put in the mood for a maccies opened just eat and everything but that soon developed into a hatred for the chain and will ONLY buy from BK now One of my all time favourite tunes Benny Benassi-Satisfaction has been ruinedTo top the whole disgusting experience off The Family only has one series and leaves a massive cliffhanger not STV players fault of course but f them anyway Do not recommend EVER

Solution for Programs that Won t Play
As per previous comments we are unable to watch current soaps Corrie Emmerdale etc on the player - just a blank screen with a circle in the middle We eventually got round this by starting watch it on the STV App ON OUR PHONE then casting it onto the TV Works but why we can t just watch it directly from the app on the TV screen

Terrible service
Terrible service gave it 1 star as I can t give it zero which it deserves Continuously freezes can t even exit from it I have to unplug TV completely for 10 mins Looks like the same problem for many viewers but STV seem to be doing nothing to improve it a disgrace I ll be avoiding it from now on even if I do miss programmes it s not worth the hassle frustration

STV PLayer Would give zero stars if I could
Would give zero stars if I could Terrible App that constantly buffers and jumps back to earlier parts of the programme after watching adverts Been like this for years and for some reason STV just seem to accept this Come on STV this needs investment and a serious upgrade
