FAQs
What are licensing agreements?
Most of the channels we provide to you are owned by media companies other than Comcast. We obtain the rights to carry channels according to agreements (or contracts) with those companies. Learn more about our programming contracts.
If Xfinity On Demand isn’t available on my TV, can I still access On Demand content online or through the app?
Unfortunately, Xfinity On Demand services aren’t available in some areas. If you live in one of these areas, you can't watch On Demand content through your TV Box or with the Xfinity Stream portal (online) or app.
Why isn't a movie or TV show available to watch online or on mobile devices?
We’re constantly working to bring you a wider variety of programming. We add new content daily, but due to licensing agreements, we may not have every movie, show or episode available.
Are Pay Per View sports packages or Pay Per View events available on the Xfinity Stream app?
No, not at this time.
Why are there advertisements during online videos?
To have the rights to put most shows online or on mobile devices, we’re required by the content owners of those shows to put in ads. In many cases, shows on TV have many more commercials than the same show we play online.
Why is some content only available for purchase and not available to rent?
Xfinity On Demand titles for purchase or for rental are subject to licensing agreements. Titles are often available for purchase before they're available to rent or on DVD. For more information, see these FAQs about Xfinity On Demand purchases.
Disclaimer:
Xfinity On Demand services aren’t available in all areas. If you live in an area that doesn’t offer Xfinity On Demand through your TV Box, you won’t have access to Xfinity On Demand content through the Xfinity Stream app or online portal.
