In a major update to enhance the viewing experience, DStv has launched an improved DStv Stream with features that give viewers unprecedented control over their streaming content. The latest version of DStv Stream not only features a new and easy-to-use interface but also integrates advanced features that directly address the individual needs of viewers.
The update includes an optimized navigation system that makes it easier for users to immerse themselves in a rich collection of content ranging from sports to international news.
Reverse EPG
This innovative feature allows subscribers to rewind live TV on their selected channels for up to 24 hours. Whether you missed a key goal in a soccer match or the latest news, you can scroll back to the moment you left off and catch up. This feature includes channels such as SuperSport Football, ESPN, and international news channels such as CNN International and BBC World.
Cloud PVR Recording
This addition allows viewers to record live content and watch it later at their convenience. These recordings are stored in the cloud in the My Stuff section for up to 30 days, giving you the flexibility and convenience to watch shows that suit your schedule. The rollout of these features will begin this month and will be gradually available across all supported platforms including iOS, Android and dstv.stream. Users are advised to ensure that auto-updates are enabled on their devices to receive updates automatically or manually update the app to take advantage of these new features.
DStv’s commitment to improving user engagement is reflected in a new interface design that puts ease of use and content discovery at the forefront. The platform now uses personalized recommendations, trailers and previews to help users find content that matches their interests more efficiently. “With this update, we’re giving control back to viewers,” said a DStv spokesperson. “We know how important flexibility is in today’s fast-paced world, and with Reverse EPG and Cloud PVR, we ensure subscribers never miss out on their favorite content. As streaming services evolve, our latest offering reflects improvements to DStv Stream.”
An industry-wide trend for more personalized and user-centric viewing experiences. Subscribers are encouraged to update their DStv Stream app to explore these new features and redefine how they interact with live and on-demand content.
