This week, QVC was added to the channel lineup on Sling. Since it doesn't fit the main categories they've set up for promoting channels on the Sling website, you won't see it listed there, but if you scroll through the guide, you'll find it near the Food Network.

 

I'm very excited for this since I've been watching through the Roku app, which not only does not offer options for recording shows but also is very user unfriendly due to recent "feature updates."

 

Fingers crossed that QVC2 will be added soon...

Re: QVC now available on Sling

I also watch via the ROKU or Amazon platform. I hate the new updates. I do like all of the choices that are offered when you stream.

 

I will have to check out how it looks on Sling which I have.

@icezeus - I've been watching for a couple of hours now and the picture has been perfect, just like any of the other streaming channels. And I'm loving the fact that there haven't been any annoying app timeouts! I also enjoyed setting up recordings for some of the Christmas programming I won't be able to watch live later in the day.

I will be watching some of the Christmas programming this evening so I will definitely check it out.

@icezeus   I watch on Roku as well.  I love all the videos of both QVC & HSN on there, plus the many never-on-air special videos and programming as well.

 

But like you, I really don't like the recent new changes they've made.  It's not user friendly at all.

 

I recorded a couple of the Christmas shows from yesterday since I was out all day -- thank you Sling!

@Caaareful Shopper - I'm not sure if you noticed, but there is some on-demand content on Sling as well—obviously not as much as on QVC's homegrown app, which makes sense. I was out for the evening and missed the VPH show and some other Christmas programming, and it was realllly nice to come home and watch those recorded shows on my nice big TV instead of having to click through individual item presentations on my smaller computer monitor. Hooray for Sling!

I do like the extra programming that is available when you stream. I watched the VPH shows last night after I climbed in bed as well.

@icezeus and @Caaareful Shopper - Another reason to love QVC on Sling: The ability to pause and rewind live programs! I was very happy to discover that option tonight.
