A live programme
Write down the fixture or programme and the time it is shown. Check availability for your location before arranging your evening around it.
Your evening. Reserved.
Start with the screen you use most. Check the player, choose what you want to try and ask for a TellyPal trial before committing to a plan.
Start with a good evening on your own TV
Choose something you would usually watch and see how it plays on the device you already use. That is a better test than a long list of features.
