Always exit an app and return to the TV Hub Home screen, before turning off your TV box or allowing it to go into standby mode. This will ensure your TV Hub is ready to go next time you turn it back on.
Your TalkTalk TV Hub brings you more than just TV. Explore an ever-expanding universe of over 10,000 apps on your TV screen. Movies, TV, fitness, music and games – all right there in one place.

You’ll find some apps are already pre-installed on your TV Hub. We call these ‘Featured Apps’. A table below shows the Featured Apps which will be available on your box.

Please use the power cable provided with your new TV Hub and not a 3rd party or existing cable.
We also recommend you use the HDMI cable supplied. If using an alternative cable, ensure it complies with UHD 4K Standards.
If your internal storage becomes full, you can use this slot to insert a Micro SD card (not supplied with your TV Hub) to add additional storage. This is really useful if you intend to download a large number of Apps from the Google Play Store.
You can use the USB slot to play compatible media (for example photos and home videos) on your TV Hub.
You can connect a soundbar to your TV or your TalkTalk TV Hub in several different ways. This will depend on the different capabilities of each device.
If you experience problems with audio and video sync when using a sound bar, here’s some helpful tips:
If this doesn’t work, then please reset the sync to default and try these different cabling setups:
If all of the above troubleshooting steps doesn't fix the issue, unfortunately you'll have to bypass your soundbar and use the built-in audio on your TV.
You can connect various Gamepads to your TV Hub to enhance your gaming experience. You can find out more information and how to complete a simple setup at Google Support.
When attempting to pause live TV after historically playing a music app (for example Spotify), music may start to play from the app again when the Play/Pause button is pressed on the remote. This results in sound from the TV programme sometimes playing at the same time as the music. If this happens, you should simply force stop the music app to stop it running in the background.
