Frequently asked questions about Helix TV
Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is an increasingly popular television broadcasting protocol that delivers video signals over Internet protocol networks, giving it several advantages over conventional radio protocols. This gives you more flexibility when watching TV, as all content and platforms (Internet and traditional TV) are grouped into one interface, which means you can now access them on your TV, phone, tablet and computer, wherever you are. You can view your content live, on demand, pre-recorded or in lookback mode. Thanks to Helix TV, you can easily program a live recording from your computer, start viewing on your TV with the Helix TV terminal, then download the content and finish it later on your mobile with the Helix TV app.
IPTV stands for Internet Protocol Television. As its name suggests, IPTV technology transmits video signals over Internet protocol, rather than light pulses via fibre optics, or radio frequencies from cables or antennas. In the case of traditional digital television over radio frequencies, broadcasters send signals, and the viewers who receive them can only see what is broadcast. With Helix TV, which is a state-of-the-art IPTV service, you have the opportunity to see all that content broadcast according to the specific programming of the various channels, but also all the video-on-demand content available at your convenience on popular platforms like Club illico, Netflix or YouTube.
Yes. All Helix TV plans offer the latest IPTV technology with all your content in one place for a better viewing experience, a greater variety of content from different platforms, video on demand (VOD), sports statistics, a range of apps and viewing options that meet your needs in all situations.
Yes. You must subscribe to Helix Internet in order to take advantage of Helix TV. Start by selecting the power of your Helix Internet connection and add the Helix TV service by opting for a Helix Internet and TV plan or a Helix Internet and Helix TV app plan.
Not at all! Helix technology is designed to provide an enhanced entertainment experience at the fastest Internet speeds. On average, to achieve continuous Ultra High Definition (UHD or 4K) image quality, a connection with a minimum speed of approximately 25 Mbps is required. More speed is needed if you use several other connected and bandwidth-hungry devices at the same time.
Helix’s unlimited Internet plans are tailored to your needs, with speeds starting at 30 Mbps.
You have two options to benefit from Helix TV - get a Helix TV terminal that will be connected to a TV or subscribe to a Helix TV App plan without a terminal and stream Helix TV on your screens with Chromecast (other compatible streaming devices will be added shortly).
Yes. Your Helix TV entertainment platform features a wide selection of exciting content, including everything on Netflix. However, a Netflix membership is required to use the Netflix app.
