In live TV broadcasting, catch-up refers to the process of recording live television programs on the IPTV provider’s server, allowing viewers to watch the content later after the original broadcast has ended.
Many IPTV devices offer additional time-shifting features, such as the ability to start watching a program from the beginning even while it’s still airing live. Some IPTV providers also offer time-shifted versions of their channels, typically delayed by one hour.
In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to use the Time Shift or Catch-Up feature on your MAG device.
