X TV introduces several innovative features aimed at enhancing the user experience. Among these is Replay TV, which allows users to store up to 72 hours of shows in the cloud, making it easy to catch up on missed content. Another key feature is Startover TV, enabling viewers to restart any live show from the beginning, regardless of when they join. Additionally, Free Cloud DVR offers users the ability to record up to 100 hours of content at no extra cost, providing a convenient way to save and watch favorite shows later.

Early adopters of the X TV beta are already testing these features, with feedback expected to drive further improvements as the platform moves closer to its full release. This launch marks an exciting new phase for X as it evolves into a robust multimedia platform.
