Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
I can’t believe there isn’t an award for smoking out Old Boy’s latest goal post shift as he got himself into contortions over the word “linear”.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
Not sure how I won that. Oops. :D
Sony Channel +1 still exists on other platforms, just not VM by the way. |

And the latter with the apparent sole intention of antagonising other members.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
Really you have far to much time on your hands , saying that I am retired and normally home alone. Granddaughter with me for Xmas as she can't get home . So it's just Oxford to Cardiff instead of both of us going stateside. Glad she pick Oxford over John Hopkins !

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
JJ20X on Forum Box has posted that the pack code for Virgin Media Ulta HD Channel has changed to M/Player and Above.
I can confirm that Channel 999 is now not greyed out for me, so it looks like all VM TV customers are getting access to it now. JJ20X said it was a pack code change rather than an override, so that bodes well, in my opinion, for it being more likely to be permanent. I'd imagine VM themselves will confirm that if it is the case. ---------- Post added at 15:58 ---------- Previous post was at 15:53 ---------- I forgot, JJ20X specifically said 4K versions of those tiers. So maybe not all customers have this pack code flag on their TV account. |
Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
There aren't 4K or non-4K versions of TV packs.
Access to 4K content is dependent on whether you have a V6 or 360 box or not. Older TiVo boxes can't decode the channels at all. |
