Re: New channels?
 

ever get the feeling we wont get more4 on the 10th

i still think they have put all new channels on hold till the network is all running the same software which would be some time next year given how (and i say this understanding the task they have) long it will take

Re: New channels?
 

Hiya

I can't give any new dates for the channels to launch, but I can confirm that we are not waiting for the new software to rollout before launching anything more so there's no reason to think that they will be delayed until next year.

I hope that the channels will launch in October, but it's subject to some more testing being completed successfully.

My guess with More4 is that it'll launch at the same time or soon after the others, if the others don't come before the 10th.

Cheers
Sam

Thanks for the info Sam :)

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

Maybe the 5th of october (like someone said a few weeks back on DS) is a likley date right enough....:cool:

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

Probably slightly off topic here, but does anyone know if there is a website that I can use to see when my area will have vod ?


cheers

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

there is a postcode checker on the ntl website, but not sure how accurate it is because I tried it the other day and apparently I have vod, except that I don't:confused:

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

Thanks, do you have a url ?

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

http://www.ntlworld.com/microsites/t...videoondemand/

This should work:)

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

Thanks again, it just says 'not currently available in your area' I was hoping it may give some kind of a date when it would be available.


ah well..

cheers anyway !

cheers for the info sam

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

What in Sam's post leads to that conclusion? All it says is that the new channels will appear sometime, and More4 will launch on or after the 10th. She only 'hopes' that this will be in October.

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

If/when we get EURONEWS, does anyone know if it will be available in the seven languages it broadcasts in?

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

Thank you for the update Sam.

I think it would be bad for ntl if they were not to launch More4 when it goes on air. Thank goodness I have my Freeview box.

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

Sad that i say this but i doubt we will get more4 on the 10th my bigest gripe with all this new channels not launching (on a date we all learned from one or two of the channels themseves and not from NTL so it doesnt count as an official press realise i know all that) is that is seems like no testing was done before the day and thats just bad practise,

saying all that i cant help feeling that NTL had said (to the channels)"we will start doing the tests on this date, if its fine we will just go ahead and launch but only if its ok"

Re: [Merged] New channels?
 

They probably did test test them and that is why they didn't launch them.
