Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

I would have thought that figures like those would have encouraged ITV to do a deal with VM as quickly as possible to increase viewing figures as quickly as possible, as selling advertising with such low numbers cannot be easy. Though I guess they sell advertising as a package.
Perhaps someone in advertising could educate me?

I wonder if VM are going to introduce a new HD EPG system like SKY are on Feb 1st article link here

Why ??..when Tivo is coming out from next year.:)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

Hi Windy,

So until TiVo enabled boxes become standard PVR on VM and not a premium product, we will just have to hide SD channels on our fav setting :(

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

Is there any likelihood of TCM broadcasting in HD, I think its the only movie channel left to do so, and one of the original movie channels to start out.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

There are several non HD movie channels incuding Movies 24, True Movies and Cinemoi.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

your right of coarse, I didn't include them as movie channels, forgot, as I dont watch them cos they are so poor in quality, and we forgot Horror also. Tcm been around for ages and I know they show a lot of old stuff but they do tend to mix it with new also.

Just seen a advert on ITV about ITV+1 and that states that it starts on 11-1-11. So the info that has been on DS has been correct for once.

UKTV Channel share nearly sold

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

Yes they are nearly sold but if the deal falls through there are DISCOVERY and also ITV are waiting in the wings.

However, Discovery Communications and ITV are thought to be waiting in the wings should the talks break down.

Widescreen would be a start. :erm:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

There are rumours that we will be getting CBS Drama, which would be part of a welcome replacement for the channels that we are losing with the Sky takeover of Bravo and Channel One. Do you think we'll get the HD version? http://wotsat.techradar.com/news/cbs...s-way-10-12-10

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

That made me literally lol, I don't know why, I could just imagine you saying it indignantly as you typed it in! :D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV
 

Comedy Central launched a HD simulcast even though the SD channel still broadcasts 4:3 so you never know but widescreen would be good for a start.

There is a TCM HD channel in the US but it broadcasts mostly upscaled fare.
