I don't know why Channel 4 bother with regional advertising, surely there isn't enough to make it worthwhile. And it's not like they have regional schedule differences. Actually, now I think of it I saw a Scottish Water advert on All4 the other day. Huh. :-D |

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
I noticed just now that NHK World (625) has changed packs on Virgin Media's website table. I have checked and I can now receive this HD channel. It was the last of the News section that wasn't available to everyone.
The website suggests it's now available on Player tier, previously it was on Full House only. Can someone check it's on Player. I also get the impression more channels have been added to Player tier, but since I'm on a higher pack I can't be sure. This is the VM page with the table, though it does seem to have some errors, unless it was glitching for me. https://www.virginmedia.com/shop/bun...tvlistings-top |
Re: Virgin Media Changelog
I had another quick look this morning. I compared the table on the link above with the PDF of April's channel list.
I can't test this one myself, unlike NHK World, as I was already receiving it, but it appears Film4+1 has been moved down to Player. Given Film4+1 is freely available on Freeview and FreeSat this change is long overdue. I've not spotted any other pack changes so far. ----- Oh, and I was slightly wrong about NHK World being the last of the News section not available to everyone (prior to the change yesterday), Sky News HD is now the sole News section channel not available to every pack. |

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
I can confirm Lifetime HD, Crime+Inv HD, History HD and History 2 HD have today replaced their SD versions on their respective channel numbers on the EPG.
As a lower tier customer I can also confirm that Lifetime HD and History 2 HD have moved down a tier rather than the lower tiers lose access to them. |
Re: Virgin Media Changelog
As garethf1927 said on another thread, the day after the A&E channel HD swaps, the Crime+Inv HD moved (yet again) from 222 to 209 (alongside Lifetime HD) and Crime+Inv+1 has moved from 224 to 222.
So after all that upheaval the A&E channels are now numbered as follows: Lifetime HD is on 208 Crime + Investigation HD is on 209 Crime + Investigation +1 is on 222 HISTORY HD is on 270 HISTORY +1 is on 271 HISTORY 2 HD is on 273 |

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
Obvious there must be a reason why Sky Premiere+1 is still in SD on Ch 402?.

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
A constant source of irritation to those of us living in London is that the lunchtime local news is only broadcast in SD. If you are watching the national news in HD then it means changing channels to watch the news from the city. I know it's only a few button presses but as far as I am aware the other UK regions do not have to do this.

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
At least with local ITV News in HD it broadcasts something. EG Around here you get Meridian(south east) HD news in an Anglia region. SD version is Anglia news.

For instance Sky/Freesat customers get Anglia East HD in the whole Anglia region. So in the West part of the region you get Anglia West in SD but Anglia East in HD. On Cable & Freeview you get Meridian SE in HD in the whole region. ---------- Post added at 11:46 ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 ---------- Quote:
ITV has financed several additional HD feeds to provide opt outs & +1 loops, but only for main regions. The sub regions only have seperate SD feeds, & if sub region studios have been closed, as many have, then what you see on an SD sub region is usually recorded earlier & broadcast simultaneously to the live version on the HD channel. ---------- Post added at 12:04 ---------- Previous post was at 11:55 ---------- Quote:

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
Sky are effectively forced to broadcast all regional programmes because they use a single UK-wide platform. VM doesn't have that restriction.
|
Re: Virgin Media Changelog
Quote:
The BBC on the other hand is not a private concern, being licence fee funded. So their decision to take EPG slots for every region may be something to do with this. Regions on cable are tied down to cable franchise rules as originally set up by the Cable Authority. These prescribe what must be available in each franchise area. |
