Can I just say, for the record, that I would love CBS Action and Sony Entertainment Channel. Thanks.

I can relate to that! Just before Crimbo, when I had Sky I watched a Status Quo gig on one of the Sky Arts HD channels. The PQ and audio were awesome. Almost felt like you were actually there at times, especially from the sound point of view. I hope VM don't stitch us up by screwing up the transmissions of these channels to fit them onto their 'over-capacitated' network. :rolleyes:

Sony launches tonight. It is an encrypted service although I don't know whether it is part of a subscription package or just scrambled for rights reasons.

Eitherway it isn't going to be available on Freesat at launch. All the CBS channels are though.

Eh? :confused:

A channel being on Freeview or Freesat has no bearing on it's ability to be on VM Cable. :)

Yes channel 157 on Sky and I believe CBS Action HD and CBS Drama HD have been granted a license by OFCOM and should arrive on Satellite.

Just want to say I'm delighted that Sky Arts 1/2 HD are coming.

Now I just need AlJazeera and NHK World as well and I won't be missing any of my favourite channels from Sky anymore!

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

yeah, aljazeera, nhk world and russia today would be great, nhk world HD is launching on Freesat soon, would be nice to get it on virgin too.

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

This is what l mean, two channels l don't even watch, and VM put them on as NEW channels.

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

They are new to VM, we don't currently carry them :confused:

just because you don't watch them...others do.

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

Looks like it the old "here we go again" as they have added new channels and now it i did not get the channels that i wanted. So now i will have a rant?

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

Exactly. Just because VM staff members don't watch Sky News HD, doesn't mean others don't either.

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

Well done Virgin

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

We don't carry Sky News HD, so can't watch it :p:
