Good for background viewing
Entertainment channels are the ones people leave on while cooking, working from home or winding down. A few ideas:
- Music channels make a good soundtrack for a party, with videos on the big screen.
- Travel and food channels run in short segments, so you can drop in at any point.
- Nature documentaries look spectacular on a large 4K TV when the channel broadcasts in high quality.
Organize it your way
Entertainment channels are where favorites lists help most. In TiviMate, add the channels you enjoy to a favorites group and hide the ones you never watch, so the TV guide stays tidy.
Picture and sound
Most entertainment channels broadcast in HD or Full HD. Music channels sound best through a soundbar or home cinema system: check that your streaming device’s audio output is set to automatic or to the format your system supports.
