3Player is an on demand video service provided by Ireland's TV3,[1] for programmes broadcast on both TV3 and 3e.[2] 3Player is available to audiences in the Republic of Ireland.[3] The service was launched on Saturday 8 October 2011.[4] The service replaced TV3 Catch-Up.
Content
3Player is a free online catch-up service which lets viewers watch a variety of programmes for up to 28 days after they are broadcast on TV3 and 3e. Most programmes are available for 28 days from the day they were broadcast.[5] Due to programme rights restrictions however other programmes, mainly ITV productions are only available for 7 days. The majority of TV3 and 3e's broadcasts are available on the service. Both channels are also available live as they broadcast on this service.
Format
The service utilises HTML5.[6] This allows viewers to access the 3 player regardless of their operating system.[7]
Availability
The service is available to those resident in the Republic of Ireland. The service is available on PCs and Mac format desktop and laptop devices. It is also available via Sony Bravia internet enabled TVs and certain Sony Blu-ray players. It became available on PS3 on 22 December 2011.
3Player was made available to UPC Ireland customers through their televisions from 25 May 2012.[8]
