Just had my Screenwise installed this morning (was supposed to be last week, but the guy didn't have the right equipment). Seems straightforward enough. And figure that if it's too much of a pain, I can cancel. Didn't realise that they install a separate router, just as well they bring a new extension plug!

Hoping to get some more panels too! The rewards for some sound fab.

Just had my screenwise email too! Accepted so waiting for a technician to call.

How do you request to do it yourself? As I'll easily be able to do it.

What's screenwise?!

Actually decided not going to go ahead after I realised:

The Screenwise TV Tab is measuring the sound coming out of your television speaker and therefore must be placed near the speaker. These sounds then are changed into “audio signatures.” Only these signatures, and nothing else, will be sent to Google via the Screenwise TV Tab. These “audio signatures” cannot be used to play sound or listen to what was captured - they contain raw data that is later used to match with a database of signatures to determine what program was being watched.


I'm not too keen on that!!! Think its a bit OTT.

Ive just received an email for this and just signed up. So exciting!!

I would rather install it myself if its easy. More convenient.

Do you think screenwise is safe? Read the privacy bit of it and it seems very intrusive?
