DStv has added a new feature to its DStv iOS app that allows DStv Premium customers to download selected videos from DStv Catch Up.
Live streaming of major sporting events has also been incorporated into the SuperSport iOS and Android apps, says the pay-TV operator.
DStv Catch Up is a video on demand (VOD) service available to DStv Premium customers. The catalogue of VOD entertainment is available on a variety of devices, including SD PVRs, HD PVRs, the new DStv Explora, iPhone and iPad, and through the DStv Web site.
DStv Catch Up is available free of charge to DStv Premium customers, but a sign up process needs to be undertaken, including linking the smart card or customer number - which can be done via the DStv Web site as a once-off process.
