Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015)

So is this info wrong MB or just delayed?

BTW, I have no problem with you posting info such as this, even if it does end up being bad info; that's just the nature of these things.

Its not bad information, the app is for virgin media cloud its basically making the tivo box into dlna system where you can view videos, music and pictures from the cloud. This is a big improvement from virgin.

But what about streaming Tivo recordings to computers and mobile devices; that was the headline part for most people, and what I was enquiring about.

Video file take a lot of space, so adding videos to VM's cloud would just be economically impractical, given their charges. One ripped film, from a DVD takes over 6GB.

Before that the deal was signed in August 2010.

So base on that I say the Viacom is up in Summer 2016.

Thanks for info

Yes l actually am but giving certain channels a name for a few weeks is just gimmicky in my opinion.

I agree with this changing the name for things such as Christmas, Halloween even is ok but nowadays they just change the name for the Hell of it.

I'm of a similar opinion Den that said you'd be surprised how much research is conducted into these pop up channels so the majority of feedback must be favourable otherwise they'd stop.
