Catch-up, Start over and rewind: what is the difference?

All three let you watch something you did not see live, but they work in different ways. Here is what each one does, and why one of them may be missing on a channel.

Catch-up: a program that already aired

Pick a past program in the guide and watch it from the start. It works for programs that are still in your provider's archive, which is often a few days.

Start over: begin the program that is on now

You tuned in late? Start over plays the program that is on right now from its beginning, while the broadcast carries on without you.

Rewind: go back on a live channel

Missed the goal? On a live channel, go back a few seconds or a few minutes, and return to live when you are done.

Where it all comes from

Theamo does not record anything. All three use the archive your provider keeps for each channel. If a provider keeps no archive for a channel, or you watch an antenna tuner, only live TV is available there. That is why a rewind button can be missing on one channel and there on the next.

Catch-up, Start over and rewind are part of Theamo Pro. Live TV and the guide are free.
