Sadly unless vm have had a change of heart long wait on universal hd I'm afraid I was told in July they don't value it enough to obtain,total joke with all the new shows that are on/starting on it and that sd pq is one of the worst I've ever seen.thank god I can switch the sky box on and each in hd ;)

I sympathise if your pq is bad, but I don't know why you are experiencing this. We record a fair amount from Universal and the picture is fine. There may be differences between TVs but I wonder whether your signal is right. Might be worth raising it with VM to see if they can put it right.

Cheers bud,maybe its me just being a hd snob.to be honest I dont watch any of the sd channels they all look grainy to me anything i want to see on these channels I obtained hd versions by other means.some do look better than others and when I lve flicked it on its looked like one of the worse ones but that could be down to program thats on and how old I suppose

Isn't it about time they implemented a simple software drop to remove by option, standard def channels - can't stand hunting out the HD channel equivalents

Although it would be nice to do, I doubt it's simple to achieve - especially when you have consider series links, and the fact that Virgin have both V boxes and TiVo that can receive HD channels

I'm the opposite i can never really tell the difference between HD and SD channels so never mind just watching on SD. May be because i'm always drunk though
