So the kids are happy. Or will be in a Virgin "Soon" time-frame. Anything for adults or bill payers?? I guess they need all the money they can get for Richards Block Brexit campaign. Any reports of boycotts/protests yet today?

Unwrapping our Virgin TV V6 box By David Bouchier November 30 2016 Today we’re taking the wraps off our new Virgin TV V6 box. Our smallest, smartest, fastest box yet is half the size of our previous TiVo box with 10x the power and packed with loads of extra features… Record six shows The V6 box allows people to record six programmes while watching a seventh recording or stream from services such as iPlayer or Netflix. This increases to 12 simultaneous recordings with two V6 boxes. Watching live TV on demand programmes or recordings doesn’t stop in the living room. The new set top box is completely compatible with our TiVo box meaning that existing Virgin Media customers can keep recordings and transfer settings. It is also designed so that recordings can be accessed and streamed on other TiVo boxes around the home. Streaming Recordings, Box Sets, catch up live TV can be watched in one room, paused and continued in another seamlessly through a V6 or TiVo box. Recordings and live TV can also be continued on a mobile device with our TV Anywhere app. This means existing customers can enjoy a multi-room connected TV experience. Future proof TV: 4K and HDR All V6 boxes support 4K Ultra-High Definition (UHD) TV with Netflix and YouTube available in 4K from launch and more programming coming soon. The V6 box is also High Dynamic Range (HDR) compatible so that as more HDR content becomes available a patch will be downloaded and Virgin TV customers can enjoy the very best 4K picture quality on compatible HDR TVs. A smart, quick interface, reassuringly familiar & built for apps The V6 box is powered by our very latest, intelligent TiVo software and has been built for apps which, in combination with the powerful technology inside the V6 box, mean that its image-based menus are superfast to navigate. It also means apps such as iPlayer, Netflix and Vevo will open with lightning speed. Features include Smart Search and Series Link+, allowing customers to easily access the great range of programmes on Virgin TV wherever they are hiding. Find my remote The V6 remote is smaller than the existing remote but will be instantly recognisable to TiVo users so there won’t be any barriers to getting straight to the best TV. A new search button on the remote instantly fires up the TiVo brain meaning there are fewer clicks to the TV users want. The remote has a lot more oomph - it’ll now work even when the V6 box is tucked away in a cupboard. Plus, if it’s ever lost there’s a button on the V6 box which will make the remote beep so it can be rescued from the depths of the sofa. Storage The Virgin TV V6 box comes with 1TB of storage allowing 500 hours of SD recordings or 100 hours of HD recordings. Every additional Virgin TV V6 box installed will add another 1TB to the overall storage in the home and the ability to record six more programmes simultaneously. Pricing Pricing for the Virgin TV V6 box is simple, transparent and will not incur additional monthly subscription fees. The new state of the art box will be available to existing customers on a Mix bundle or higher, before the end of the year. Existing customers will not need to change package to benefit. New customers joining Virgin Media will be able to order the Virgin TV V6 box when choosing their TV bundle from January 2017. The standard price of the Virgin TV V6 box is a simple £99.95 one-off upfront cost. New and existing customers with a top-tier Full House or VIP bundle will benefit from a promotional price of £49.95. A company wide effort Many people have been involved in working to bring Virgin TV to this stage and in particular the V6 box.We have had over 1000 staff involved in testing and trialling the new box, giving their feedback and working with us to improve the experience.As we moved into technical pilot with customers the teams have been there to help guide them through any questions they have had. Edit: Person received info in an e-mail. |

Disappointed not to see Amazon appearing yet, I thought they might announce this. And no 2 TB box, it seems. |
Re: Virgin Media V6 - Powered by TiVo(new STB)
It was a let down like a lot virgin media things.
1. The virgin media store great idea to rent and buy 2. The app for kids interesting concept 3. Recording 6 channels at the one time 4. A box built for apps( I thought that was TiVo original plan) 5. The telly box is cool but not if you have iPad Pro 6. What is the selected content, it would be nice to know the channels 7. When we might wonder, well wonder is the word and also the price, what excuse do they have |

I'd imagine a model similar to that would be enough for most people. |
