Connection Problems- Only with AOL
The problem started a week to 10 days ago. I can not connect to AOL via my hughes Gen5 connection. We both use aol mail (yes, I know there are better options, and I may look into that, but when you...
One other thing is that, if you'd like to schedule the file downloads, but you don't like the idea of leaving your PC on (I don't), or messing with trying to schedule the downloads to your PC, you can schedule the file download(s) to your Android or IOS device using the PlayOn Cloud app, then copy the files to your PC.
BTW, don't forget to change the resolution on the app if you want it to be better than standard. I'm fine with standard, which is DVD quality, but some people want it to be better, regardless of the increased file size for the program/movie. I believe 720p is the maximum resolution, but that's still very good.
If you try it and you like it, please let us know. I'm still deciding whether to get it, though I probably will. It's cheap, and lets you easily take advantage of the Bonus Zone data, and even those twenty days of data resets with your upgrade (make sure first, though, of course). :)
Is there a trick to getting the app on a Win10 laptop? I can see how to get it for my phones. I must be doing something wrong. Can't find how to authorize my laptop with Google Play.
(I don't use many (if any) apps on Win10) Use em all the time on the phone.
OK, I just got in to the Play On Cloud website. I guess what I need to do is this.....
Once that recording is complete, an .mp4 file will be ready for you to enjoy. You can download the recorded.mp4 video file from the PlayOn Cloud app onto your mobile device. We also email you a download link to the video so you can download it from anywhere onto any device or computer.
That's right. You set up the download (this is where they deduct the recording tokens from your account), and it works behind the scenes, in the cloud. You can just shut down the app and forget about it. It records in real time (it's a DVR-like thing), so a 1 hour show will take 1 hour to record. When the recording is done, you will get an email with a download link. Unless you pay for storage, the recording will only be stored for 7 days. If you lose the link or the email, you can use the app to get the email resent. If the recording is no longer in storage, you have to re-record it.
With the link, you can download to any device. I think to download to devices like iPhone or iPad you don't need the email, you do that from the app -- BirdDog will know more about this. I download from the link in the email to a flash drive.
