The Rio Olympic Games presents a key opportunity to provide our audience with the best possible experience on their connected TV; we want our audience to feel like they’re at the event and never miss a moment of the action.

When we set out to rethink Red Button+, our goal was to provide frictionless access from ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ television channels to compelling content from ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ iPlayer, Sport and News and more.

We’ve done this by improving the navigation between all of our ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ TV apps – and we’ve given ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ News and Sport a makeover, unifying design and interaction patterns so that users of ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ iPlayer will discover a familiar pattern when browsing, watching or reading content across all ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ products.

During the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳’s Olympic coverage on television, ‘pressing red’ on your connected TV will instantly connect you with up to 24 HD streams of live coverage from ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Sport, so nobody needs to miss a moment of the action that they want to watch.

We’ve made it easy to navigate to other sports, restart coverage if the start of an event has been missed, get the latest highlights, see what action’s coming up and catch up on any medal moments from previous days.

Plus it’s now even easier to access ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ iPlayer from a connected TV by ‘pressing red’, giving our audience a quick way to find the programmes they want to watch, or quickly restart the programme they are currently watching.

An innovative engineering solution underpins this change to our audience-facing products, meaning all our connected TV apps now share a common code-base, known internally as TAP (TV Application Platform). This approach eases the burden on support teams, enables faster product innovation and helps us to make our content available on more devices more easily - all through practical adoption of platform-thinking.

Comprehensive coverage from ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Sport online, on connected TV and on Red Button+

Building on our online offer for London 2012, you’ll be able to access 24 live HD streams on web, mobile and on connected TV for the Rio Olympic Games, providing over 2,500 hours of live Olympics coverage.

These streams will be available from , through the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Sport apps for and via Red Button+ (our internet-connected Red Button service) and the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Sport App on and media streaming devices:

• 24 live HD video streams
• Highlights clips and replays of those not-to-be-missed moments [this is the case on connected TV and via Red Button]
• Intuitive, quick access to live, coming up and catch up
• Additional text commentary, audience interaction via ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Sport’s live coverage on mobile, tablet or PC
• Olympics Playlist, downloadable to catch up every morning on the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ iPlayer

Changes to some of our HD channels on Freeview HD/YouView

Three of our HD channels (C³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ HD, CBeebies HD and ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Four HD) will be moving broadcast capacity on Freeview from 27th July until shortly after the Olympic Games ends, in order to allow us to extend ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Four HD’s hours to start from 1pm. ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Four will be available to all Freeview HD for the duration of the Olympic Games.

The interim broadcast capacity for C³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ HD will have less coverage in the UK than the existing capacity. As a result, some viewers will find they’ve lost C³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ HD over the Olympics Games period – as a check if currently you’re unable to see either CBeebies HD or ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Four HD, then unfortunately you will be losing reception of C³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ HD temporarily – however, normal service for C³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ HD will resume after 23rd August and you will still receive the SD version throughout. We apologise for any inconvenience this causes. For those viewers that are able to continue receiving C³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ HD during the Rio 2016 period, it will be temporarily moving to LCN 97 on Freeview and YouView.

For unavoidable technical reasons, on the three HD channels that are moving any series links that have been set will not record – so viewers should reset their recordings to the SD version of those channels in order to maintain continued recordings during the Olympic Games.

After the Olympics period, we’ll be returning things back to normal – whilst CBeebies HD and ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Four HD will also be moving to a different slot of broadcast capacity from where they are now, and so may require a retune, for the majority there should be no material impact from the current Freeview reception of these channels. See the Freeview paragraph below on retuning your TV or box to get the latest updates.

June 24 – 26 : Glastonbury on the Red Button

Marking the 20th year of ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ television coverage of the festival, later this month there’ll be 25 hours of TV of the world-renowned Glastonbury festival across our main network services (³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Two and Four, plus their HD counterparts). You can find more details about all the acts on TV .

Our three broadcast red button streams are all scheduled services covering six of Glastonbury’s stages (namely Pyramid, Other, John Peel, West Holts, The Park and ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Introducing).  Unlike the live streams on the website and our internet-powered Red Button+ service, our standard red button service has recorded performances from those six stages, but there’s no presenters, just pure music. A table of what’s available on each platform and on which EPG numbers is shown below.

Freesat	981	982	983	980
Sky	981	982	983	980
Virgin Media	991	992	993	990

However, if you’ve got access to the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳’s Red Button+ application on your connected TV, there will be six extra streams with live access from a range of stages. Our Red Button+ app is supported by Virgin TiVo and YouView devices as well as a growing range of smart TVs once they’ve been connected to the internet. You can find out if your TV set can get our Red Button+ service .

At bbc.co.uk/music, the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Glastonbury website and ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ iPlayer via PCs, tablets and smartphones, you’ll also be able to access the same live streams of the six stages, across the weekend. There will also be around 120 performances available on demand at  and ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ iPlayer so you’ve no need to worry about timetable clashes for your favourite acts.

And finally, for your fullest Glasto hit, don’t forget our recently-launched ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Music app, available on mobiles and tablets.  Go in now, highlight your favourite acts and come back during or after the festival to catch all their appearances as recorded for ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Glastonbury.
