Could you possibly tone down all of this multicoloured, bold and capitalised stuff like...

'Media Boy EXCLUSIVE'
'Media Boy Sources'
'©copyright 2020 Media Boy 2006 - 2020.'
'An ''Keep it real and free'' Production.'

...and just post normally, for example:

- I've heard a rumour that...
- I've been told that...
- I've read that...

Thanks!

Is La Liga TV available standalone or only as part of the Premier Sports bundle on Virgin?

I would doubt that they would do any testing in advance

TV Channel Lists is reporting that Sky are testing the Sky Comedy Channels right now using other SID.

So again keep an eye on Forum Box for information on Sky Comedy Channels testing on Virgin Media UK sometime before this weekend.

At time of posting BoxNation do not have an HD Channel (Source: TV Channel Lists).

Premier Sports did confirm last week "Premier Sports will be actively looking to increase live content on BoxNation with discussions underway to secure long term output agreements with PBC, Top Rank and Golden Boy along with a number of small hall UK promoters."

I was thinking they did have an HD Channel up until 6.30pm tonight.

BoxNation had an occasional HD service which would carry maybe one or two events per week - but has long closed.

Is anyone else still seeing the old Home logo in their V6 Guide and also the TV Control and TV Go apps, instead of the new HGTV logo?

Yesterday it still had the old Home logo on my V6, today it's the HGTV logo. So it's different areas/boxes at different times.

HGTV is the new name & branding for Home (now Discovery, formerly UKTV). It stands for Home & Garden TV.

We weren't talking about Horizon software. :)
