So does anyone know if we are getting Sky Atlantic or not on 1st April? :confused:

Will find out on Tuesday considering Sky Max moves from 111 to 109 and Sky Comedy isn't moving up to 111 instead staying on 112 and Sky Atlantic Original series under Sky Showcase On Demand section have been changed to expire on 31st March

It reads like a information slate on tv24 app and website.

I wouldn't hold your breath. I haven't seen any credible evidence of such a development.

Removing almost all the HBO box sets the day before HBO Max launches, then all the Sky Originals the day before a TV guide is reporting Sky Atlantic launches on Virgin TV, is a pretty big signal of what is likely going to happen!

Does the 360 have picture in picture?

What feature do you mean exactly?

Think Richard means watching 2 channels at the same time.

My 13 year old tv has it, invaluable when keeping track of 2 football matches - one on freeview, the other on VM. Could be essential during the World Cup.

Not sure VM boxes permit such things, always best to have more than one tv source.

On the V6 you can still watch the channel or recording that you're watching in a small picture at the top right hand corner, whilst looking through your recordings, looking through the EPG etc.

On the 360 you can still view the channel or recording that you're watching in a small picture in the bottom right hand corner whilst looking at the Home Screen rails or through the EPG.

Thanks, that's good to know.

What are you watching?

What equipment have you got connected to the 360, and how it is all connected?

Cheers for that.

I was under the impression that the Stream feed was separate from the V360 to avoid connection signal errors in the cable route.

The fact that i am seeing the same errors on the same channels at the same time, on both boxes, tells me the Stream box is using the same distribution feed as the V360, locally.

Is the feed for the App the same?

Interesting.

Different parts of the service work in different ways, so to answer I need to know what you are watching and what errors you are getting. And what do you mean by "the App"?
