Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Neil Berkett quoted 80 in two to three years so if we say 3 years that's about 17 a year. Virgin need more HD this is where the growth is.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT ESPN CLSSIC ON DEMAND WILL launch ON THE 14TH OF FEB A
insider WHO I KNOW TOLD ME WHO WORK FOR VIRGIN .

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

And do not forget that it says on the price increase link it says that they are fetching more at no extra fee:D

We’re bringing you more HD

If you have an HD-activated set top box and an HD TV, you can already enjoy a great range of HD channels

– with XL TV customers getting up to 17 of your favourite channels in stunning HD (see page 9 for a full list). And during this year we’ll launch even more HD channels at no extra monthly charge. Don’t forget, you can also add your favourite Sky premium channels in HD, like Sky Movies and Sky Sports 1 & 2 – taking you to up to 29 channels in crystal-clear HD. Unlike our other HD channels, there’s an extra monthly fee for Sky premium channels.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Oh you are a tease :D:D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

The increase I will be paying am seriously thinking of moving back to sky.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Anyone care to take a bet what the first HD channel arriving on VM will be , I'll go for the ITV HD channels.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I'm glad it got sorted for you :)

I read it to mean that too.

Yes, some time ago the option to pay for a seperate sub to TV Choice for TV packages below XL was removed. IIRC it was something to do with a contractual requirement for the HBO content that was available at that time.

Now HBO have got into bed with Sky, it appears it's made a comeback!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

No its got to be ESPN America HD lol:D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I really hope so

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Here here :banghead:

along with good food HD and Eden HD.

as those 3 are the only ones VM have a real chance of getting. the ITV HD channels are tied to sky for exclusivity for the moment although nobody knows how long for !!!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

It should be a priority as it has the most HD content in Europe. ;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I think it might be ITV 2HD, ITV 3HD, ITV 4HD, Universal HD, Nickelodeon HD, Disney Channel HD, Disney XD HD, Disney Cinemagic HD, ESPN America HD, SKY NEWS HD, SKY SPORTS NEWS HD, Sky Arts 1 & 2 in HD and Maybe Sky Atlantic HD also in SD aswell?.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I've been told to expect

ESPNA HD
RUSH HD
LUXE HD
ITV 2,3,4 HD
HISTORY HD
CRIME HD
SKY BASICS HD

Along with a number of SD Channels

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

thanks MB keep up the good work :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

No ESPNA HD again damn.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Rumours are rife that Premier Sports is indeed coming very soon, as part of the XL package!

I've noticed on the Premier Sports Facebook page that Premier Sports themselves are not denying this, that are instead asking people who are discussing it how they managed to get this info. The info has apparently been leaked by someone at Virgin.

Fingers crossed :D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Im not saying they should do but if they wanted to, I know they probably wont but could Virgin Media launch them all at once. Or cant they do??:help:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Who do I email a list of all the channels I want to see appear to for it to be presented in the coming soon thread as a rumour?

Do love the fact that even in a rumour post there is a question mark next to one of the channels... is there even more doubt about that channel than the others?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Serious hope we get the Premier Sports channel!!!!!!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Just post here, I'd like to see what channels you want to see appear that Virgin don't already provide, and aren't in that rumoured list posted by Media Boy. SKY Sports 3 & 4 HD along with SKY Atlantic HD aren't coming so don't count.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Sounds good to me

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

The info was from an Virgin viewer who told me an CS Supervisor give them the information.

The info I posted on Premier Sports was from the Premier Sports facebook page.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I can see that premier sports being part of the XL me .

---------- Post added at 19:48 ---------- Previous post was at 19:45 ----------

A mate at work who has sky says the PQ on Premier sports is awful.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Having just moved from Sky the channels I'll miss most are Al Jazeera, NHK World and Sky Arts HD 1/2. So I'll be happy to have any of those back.

I'm also sad to be missing out on Sky Atlantic, but I don't think there's any chance of that coming over anytime soon.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Wow a list of exciting channels there haha

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

U implying that the rumour is bollox?;):D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Thats all it is rumours nothing happened yet.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Loving all the optimism in this thread

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Gives you a warm fuzzy feeling doesn't it ;) :p:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

These are the missing channels that Sky have that I would like

From Sky's variety pack Universal HD , Sky Arts 1 and 2 HD.

From knowledge pack Nat Geo Wild HD , History HD , Eden HD.

From News and Events pack Sky Sports News HD.

From kids pack Nicklodeon HD and Disney XD HD

And bonus HD channels Sky News HD and The remaining ITV HD channels.

ESPNA HD.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Virgin hope to have all the bold one this year along with ESPN 2HD which may launch for the 2011/12 season

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I have seen somewhere that VM are trying to do a package deal for ESPNA HD ,ESPN2HD when launched and on demand from ESPN. I would be delighted with all three.:D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Just received the link to the new electric mag and it says in it:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Its the Feb issue And I got the link through a email and the only thing that I could think about signing up to it is that I got a previous email from VM and it said something about getting to know you. Then after answering that I received another about that they will send stuff.
Iam out at the momenat and will try to post the link when I get back in.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

If you sign up using my second link you should get access the the current Electric Magazine.

they hope to have all teh above nd few others including ones due for launch this year

New Virgin Media TV Advert : http://www.virginmedia.com/informati...d.php?vmsrc=HP

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Thats all goooooood news the HD channels i want :woot::cleader:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I couldn't see it, what page is it on?*

Also, the Turner channel's schedules for March are on Digiguide. TCM2's aren't there, though. Don't wanna jump to conclusions, but could they be closing TCM 2?

Speaking of Turner schedules, on the CN one, it says their showing Regular Show and Adventure Time. If you a fan of Old-School Cartoon Network shows, you should really check them out :P


*Edit: Saw it, looks like it could be just a paid advert

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Yes it could be a paid advert but with the OFCOM thing and now this, I am now getting confused about this :confused:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

tcm2 schedules are generally late out

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

It's more than that. I'm sure they have been planning this since last June when Robot Chicken etc aired on FX.

It's really confusing why they just haven't announced it yet, but it could be due to Turner changing licences on all their channels
http://licensing.ofcom.org.uk/tv-bro...updates/012011

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

The main HD channel i'm hoping for at the moment is ITV2 HD :D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

what ever happend 2 that uk 1st gamming channel ps what happing 2 the game program what was on bravo called game face

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Bad news people, although we knew it wasn't coming anyway

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/broadcas...-atlantic.html

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Already been discussed here:

http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/11...gin-media.html

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

What a terrible advert, doesn't even mention Virgin right till the end and has no mention of their products. What a waste of money.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

It's about the brand. Further adverts will appear on other platforms :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Quite enjoyed that advert. It's clever, friendly and non-threatening. Well done Virgin :):)

Clever use of the Madness lyrics aswell.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Just had a flyer through the door that says...

The flyer makes use of all the new Sky logos... Cock up about Sky Sports News or something more?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

The way you have it worded can be read that the channel list is the great range and there is HD too.

It doesn't say a great range of HD channels including

Normal marketing misread - which they know people will do

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Its about time they added more channels what with the price rises coming as well.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

more channels and hd channels will be added this year for sure. As for the price rise,well yes none of us like it but it happens every year anyway so it`s not a surprise,is it? Let`s hope they`re entertainment channels though as we have more than enough shopping channels,adult channels and radio channel.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

sport, news and entertainment spring to mind and the red button.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Virgin's selection of news channels is pretty woeful compared to what I was used to with Sky, would definitely like to see that number get increased.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I maybe off the mark here ( usually am :p: ) ... but wont the final plug pull on analouge give VM far more scope to unify the network and add as much as they can fill their boots with ( assuming they can pay for it all of course ) ..

doubt its actually holding them back as such but if everyone in a cabled area was getting the exact same lineup from the same main headend then it should be easier to add stuff without some peeps being left out and complaining

as i say probably wide of the mark and clutching at straws :D but i think VM's TV service has vastly improved in the last year but it still needs better PQ on some channels and a better choice of channels on all fronts.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Apart from Milton Keynes and Westminster there is no more analogue tv on the Virgin Media network. everyone is on one Super Head-end too. ;)

I know whos complaining, but whos left out?

More channels are a coming too!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

any chance of some new music channels df?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

And some news channels as all we got is bbc and sky.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

They are the only domestic news channels on VM but as far as I know they are the only domestic news channels that exist.

CNN and Euronews are rolling international news channels, then there's the business skewed CNBC and Bloomberg too. All available on VM.

Of course Star News is also available to asian pack customers too. And whlst not strictly news BBC Parliament is available.

There is a wider range of international news channels available on Sky and indeed many on Freesat too as most are free to air.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

any chance of Deutsche Welle on vm then?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Unlikely, it left Sky ages ago.

It's freely available on multi satellite systems though but dosen't broadcast from 28 east, it ended in August 2009.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Shame I think I saw it not so long ago in Austria (I think) and enjoyed it.

Kill for some new music channels on vm (especially scuzz or lava)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Whilst I think there is a decent choice of music channels they have retracted of late as Viacom closed some on VM but I would guess Music on Demand is where VM think they provide more, for XL anyway. PPV otherwise.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Which I am (xl) and I think it misses out on ppl like myself who have tastes outside the chart. I don't think I am asking much when Scuzz is free on freesat

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Lets face it there are loads of FTA channels on Freesat but mostly Sky that are not on VM. I have no idea why but I have read it is a lot more expensive to launch a channel on VM than Freesat. I cannot vouch for the accuracy of that though.

Maybe VM generally prefer pay channels. I honestly do not know.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

True but a mod on the scuzz forum (in a pm) said if I got enough ppl to kick up a fuss Scuzz maybe added back to vm so worth a shot haha :D

Honestly tho if I got MTV classics, Lava and Scuzz i'd be one happy vm customer and would give up my sky sub

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

It's gotta be worth a shot I suppose.

But there are loads of forums about loads of channels that broadcasters ask viewers to do the same but there is no sign of them.

VM (quite correctly from a business point of view IMO) seem to be really going after the higher tier customer these days, tying in Tivo to XL, removing the option of TV choice for non XL customers (although a watered down version is coming for L viewers), upgrading download speeds for XL BB customers and on and on.

I personally don't expect a glut of FTA satellite channels anytime soon myself but you never know. If it's practical perhaps consider a freesat system, that's not ideal I know but at least you are in a bit more control over the FTA channels you can watch. You wouldn't get MTV Classics though.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

I was going to do a facebook petition but then I remembered I don't have a facebook page.

As a music lover I think I have been forgotten about when it comes to the new channels, as such it's all about the new entertainment channels, news. sports. info or the hd variants and that's pretty weak since I watch none of those and have let my mum have my vm box since we don't use it.

Would be lovely if us music fans got catered to aswell

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Hiroki, who do you e-mail to request new channels?

I'll join your campaign for new music channels in particular as this area can be improved on VM.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

BSkyB to move more shows about.

Challenge is to broadcast an extra showing of TNA iMPACT on Saturday nights from the 19th of Feb.

5*, what a stupid name. If they change Five USA to anything other than Channel 5 USA the marketing team should be shot.

More likely the letter will be about the £1 price rise for the Asian pack.
