Cable Forum - General Changes to Virgin TV (2021)

Sky don't have full time UHD channels on red button or EPG. The red button UHD is around five or so sport events each week. VM have two UHD channels in the EPG which is two more than Sky have in their SkyQ EPG.

Most Sky Sports UHD is in HDR and there is a selection of movies which have HDR too.

3) Sky don't have full-time UHD channels themselves on their own Satellite, just Red Button. That said, VM don't even have that.

Personally I find the whole exercise very sad exercise in self promotion. But enjoy :D nugget found !!!! Fox news possibly coming.

If I could be bothered I'd vote for you, think your critique deserves to win :D

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)

and my prediction is that nothing at all will launch for TV-only customers who have the Tivo boxes, with everything new heck for customers who have VM's internet service.
