Bear in mind there are still LOTS of SD-only boxes out there, and most channels don't have an HD version. |
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
If VM ever offer HD only channels and we still have to record to the box (rather than the cloud), then I hope they give us a hard drive with five times the existing capacity!

This means massive savings for satellite and DTT, not sure how this would affect VM though as they own their own capacity. |

In a discussion I had recently with an Amazon rep, compatible devices are limited to tablets and smart phones. She claimed you could download it to the Fire TV, but I don't think that is correct. Given that a Standard Definition US 22 episode season is around 36 Gig (at least it is when I rip my personal DVDs) that becomes unpractical in my view. Of course, due to the paranoid content providers, you can't download it to a computer hard drive. |
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
We have now passed mid December when Vevo was said to be launching.
Has anybody got any news? When does the VM platform freeze begin, as this may mean it cannot be added if the freeze has already started? |

Did vm stop the Spotify offers?
|
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
Apart from having the app on TiVo - I don't think they have anything to do with Spotify now. I was told they don't even take subs for them anymore.
|
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
i still pay my spotify sub to virgin
|
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
I found two months running VM had not paid it - when I queried it that said they no longer set a sub up - perhaps they don't take new ones.
|
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
interesting, will keep an eye on it
thanks |
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
The Mail On Sunday reported that Liberty arch rival Comcast have held talks with ITV over a possible takeover. Liberty Global own 10% of ITV, so that would make interesting boardroom discussions should a bid occur.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/mar...Universal.html Buy ITV shares now while you still can! A bunfight will likely happen in the new year between some of the big US media companies and BT vying to gain control of ITV. Perhaps even Liberty may join the fray too. |
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
Its Official: Next Years F1 Season will be Shown on Channel 4 in 2016 to carry on where the BBC Left Off and some F1 Races that are Showing live on Channel 4 won't have any Adverts. F1 Will Also air on Sky aswell.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
....yep, plus it gives them a say in what happens to ITV, so they get inside info on all the financial details of a bid and what the offeror intends to do with ITV in the future.
I fully expect BT to buy ITV in the end. I would be very surprised if ITV were allowed to be gobbled up by a US major. |

I think ITV will remain independent for at least the next five years until the results of cable-cutting and Netflix are known and ITV's value can be properly judged. I still think that there is a chance that Liberty Global will split in two and sell its European assets to Vodafone. |

BT TV customers to be the first to enjoy 4k Netflix. Surely VM should have been interested in this? If BT can provide 4k down the phone lines, wouldn't the VM fibre optic broadband have been better? |
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
BT can't supply 4K to many of their customers - even those on inifinity.
4K Netflix is no good without a 4k tv - and with (almost any) 4k tv you get Netflix 4k anyway. Amazon Prime have a much better and bigger 4K offering. |

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
Just tried to play a Vevo video on my phone. A message came up that I must download Adobe Flash. My understanding is that you cannot run this on modern phones. If I am correct Vevo is going to be very limited.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2

Following my comment in post 1871 that Vevo will not play on my phone as it does not support Adobe Flash, I have an HTC One M7. I have tried again with the same negative result. I am running Android 5.0.2

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
Running Android 5.0 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 mini - and the Vevo app plays fine.
