Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.

Watch the EPG between 12 and 5am tonight is all i'm saying ;)

A couple know what i've heard is happening tonight but they're only tumours but as they're out of the blue they could be right.

Where abouts on the EPG should I be looking?

(PM me if you don't wanna say anything in public)

Some of the stuff he has come up with before I'm very weary about trusting his info!

Also... Osterly? Anyone have an idea on that one?

HI what do you think about plus 1 channels be add the one we are missing?

my suggestion if we have the main channel we should get the plus 1 throw in.

i find the are very helpfuly so i would like more of them to appear.

"Also... Osterly? Anyone have an idea on that one? "

Osterley is Sky's head office and broadcast centre and where their EPG would be generated.

What that has to do with the rest of his "exclusive" - no idea!

i think it should be upto the broadcast of the station to have make virgin agree to include the plus 1 as the pack.

If not why don't offcom get invole

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.

There are only some more timeshift channels and some more music on demand slates due to be added in the near future.

FOX+ on 199
CBS Reality +1 - 201
horror channel +1 - 202 Technix on DS

From history Technix is very reliable

It wouldnt work that way.

Say Virgin give Broadcaster A the option of 10p per subscriber a month for Channel A. But Broadcaster A says "we will only give it you if you give if you give us an extra 5p per subscriber per month and we will throw in the +1".

If Virgin turn round and say no then Broadcaster A has lost 10p per subscriber per month (which is a lot considering there are 4million subscribers with some form of TV product).

Ofcom wont get involved, there isnt any need to, its not making it bad for consumers

All times are GMT +1. The time now is 19:20.
