Nice to see these two companies co-operating these days. Does anyone know when VM's contract with Sky comes up for renewal? Is it some time in 2018?

The last scan data I received indicates that placeholders have now been added for BBC Red Button HD on Transport Stream 39 SID 3904 EPG Channel 990 & BBC Red Button 2 to 6 on Transport Stream 44 SIDs 4408 to 4412 EPG Channels 992 to 996. So far, video / audio streams have been added for BBC Red Button HD and BBC Red Button 2 & 3.

The migration of services from Transport Stream 1 to TS 104 was completed with PVR_EPG, INTACC, ITV VoD logo, Ch4 VoD logo & Ch5 VoD logo moving from SIDs 106, 114. 115, 116 & 121 to SIDs 10441, 10442, 10446, 10447 & 10448. (Just more musical chairs / internal housekeeping).

Brit Asia TV has appeared on Transport Stream 19 SID 1911 with an assigned channel number of 840. Video and audio were present. (Testing on 5 internal VM networks).

KMTV Made for Kent has also been added on regional Transport Stream 101 SID 10157 with an assigned EPG channel number of 159 on VMs internal network: "Code Download Test (Portsmouth)".

Well, that's not surprising, really. In a few days, you will have forgotten about Blaze, too. Both very forgettable additions to our channel line up, but hey, I'm sure that Mr K is happy!

Too right OB. Don't know how anyone can complain about having an extra film channel. Those that don't subscribe to Sky movies have been sold a bit short by VM in recent years.

As for Blaze, not my cup of tea. But the more options the better to keep everyone happy. If only we could have a crap channel button to block out channels we're not interested in. I'd be blocking about 90% of them.

I think an option to turn on SD channels where there is a HD or 4k option would be handy ok HD

I think BLAZE is actually a fairly worthwhile addition, for all of us that aren't on the Full House package. We don't get History, Crime + Investigation or Lifetime so this channel provides a selection of content from those channels. It is also a Freeview channel so it's only right that it should be provided on Virgin Media.
