Is it not possible on Tivo to have alternate language handled as a additional audio channel instead of red button, I was really disappointed when I tried out the alternate commentary during the world cup only to be given a poor picture that looked sub broadcast SD.

Are Virgin adding CEC-HDMI control to the Tivo anytime like Sky are doing with the current update?

Well I live in Belfast so we already get RTE ONE on 875 so was just wondering if the HD version would be launched, they show some good stuff, including movie premiers before the UK.

It's possible on TiVo, but not the other boxes. A red button app is necessary to make it available to everyone.

It's coming next month to the UK will be exactly same as USA version and cost the equivelent of $9.99.
Night of Champions is the last WWE PPV on Skysports all others will be on Sky box office however they will also be live on WWE Network global.
The reason they're staying on Sky box office is for the casual watcher who doesn't want the network.
Unlocator smart dns is working fine on the network.

Is that free? Just paid my sub for this month on overplay, wonder if it's my Ps3, been watching the nitro episodes reminiscing of the good old Monday night wars days.

Using Overplay there's your problem mate they are the worst dns service going, unlocator will give you a free 7 day trial then it's $4.99p/m afterwards, or there's unblock-us who are good too these are same price and also give a free 7 day trial.

did we find out why the network launches on 1st october and not in august like the others?? Or is it they're going to go for massive advertisement campaign for the brits this month?

I think it has something to do with the last free ppv being this month on Skysports and the new contract with Sky kicks in in October.
I'm guessing on that but judging by what i've seen on various sites this seems like the most valid reason.
