(Moved from u.t.telecom).
I am confused by this. I already had a working ITV Hub on my Humax, and recently I went through the process of signing up for ITV X. It all
appeared to go well.
But now I still have ITV Hub, it says when I fire it up, it has
everything that I expected, loads of programmes etc.
What is the story? Do I not have ITV X, or do I, but they never changed
the log from ITV Hub, or what? How do I tell? Should I have more stuff available than I do?

The on screen display will (I think) only change to ITVX if there is
an app which can be downloaded (automatically) and work with your TV
or other device.
We have a smart TV which works without any exterior devices. It has
been changed over to ITVX without any input from us
We also have a TV with an Amazon Firestick. That too has changed to
ITVX.
Another set, in a bedroom, has catch-up provided by apps on a PVR.
That PVR apparently does not try to download new apps or versions.
It's showing all the content, but still branded as ITV Hub.
Your experience may differ, of course.

That lat one is pretty much what I see on mine, which I updated to
ITV X bit still displays as ITV Hub. Oh well.
But what I don't know is: am I missing anything that a full
installation of ITV X should have?
Hmm.

As far as I can see from reading about it online the main extra thing
you get is that if you pay for a ITV X premium you get access to
Britbox. There may be no difference if you don't pay, it certainly
seems like that from what I have read.

Although I admit I haven't read the ITVX T's and C's but if it is
anything like its predecessor you will have to pay a monthly charge to
watch without adverts, otherwise adverts are thrown around willy nilly.

I did find one thing though, at least I think I did. You can step
through the prog on the time bar to very close to the end (if you are
good at it you might hit the credits!) Let it run to the very end,
then use the time bar to go back to the beginning and you will be
able to watch the programme uninterrupted. I can't remember whether
that is without adverts or just that you can step forward through
them.

How much of the content is audio described? Is it easy to find and can it
be used with voice systems on the TV? The answer to the latter seems to be no, but the former seems not to be obvious, since without the second, I'd have to use a pc and browser to listen to the pages.
