One other useful thing they offer is all of the bbc regions. which i've left off this list too, hope someone finds it interesting.

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

so if I was to believe the rumours the next date I should be possibly be looking out for something new is 14th september right?

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

Well that's what we are told but then again September the 14th is on a Saturday and nothing happens at weekends.

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

haha which rumour is this one den? i missed the 14th september rumour! i was just going off the one for last night... how interesting.

Do we know what may launch or is it just "channels to launch possibly on the 14th september" as it could be the wooden shed channel or pavement uk channel.

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

I think it was another Bomber prediction of SA coming in "mid September"

also Technix from DS reporting a few minor +1 and music items and he usually on the ball with his posts

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

Another BomberAF prediction! oh this day gets better and better! Well this will fuel my forum visits for the next 2 and a half weeks then :)

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

l am sure the next few weeks will be very entertaining especially with your excellent daily posts brightening our daily lives.:D

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

might of been the same prediction rather than "another", but i am picking

I do need to be convinced of this one being right though

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

So what was expected to launch this morning then? Anyone care to share?

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

The list of channels that haven't launched I think will be pretty long...;)

---------- Post added at 12:35 ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 ----------

You may wish to have another look at music on demand. You can select playlists which have about 45 minutes upwards of music on there in the various genres.

If you like the older material, we do have Vintage TV now.

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

You're a charmer den. Please marry me. Lets rule this kingdom together.

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

Oops as usual l am wrong again MB.:sorry::handshake

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

No great loss there

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

The new Sky channels (all being well) should be on our screens some time in September, and although the 14th has been mooted, I wouldn't get hung up on the precise date.

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

Indeed as we never watched it.

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

Nothing was expected bud,some just assumed and I'm pretty sure that channel launches are thurs nyt-fri morning except from when bt sports started that is.:confused:

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

what are the odds that one of the sky channels being sky 3d http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/im...lies/frown.gif

Virgin get exclusive access to CNN including HD.

Again, I'd put a 45% guarantee on this being true.

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

As stated to those asking where new channels are - i did clearly state that it was only a rumour nothing was confirmed :)

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

Well lets just see what the wind blows in this coming September and you never know we might just blows those pesky minions away so much that they won't be able to resist the allure this time.:waving::omg:

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

I just asked when they were about to launch, he said;

I asked where the initial info was from and he said;

So yeah no confirmation

Bromley multiplex uploaders

what does that mean?

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

Probably a club run by hd boy and Carl wearing and that timbo geezer ;)

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

Haha what a thread with just those people that would be

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

If timbo is involved then I'd imagine the club would be based in Broadmoor...

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

:LOL:

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

He did disappear quite quickly once BT Sport arrived (for his beloved Liverpool), maybe they just took away his internet rights!

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

Got banned with the other two clowns,got a few of us warnings before he disappeared thou.think he went on holiday to Syria hence the current trouble over there.;)

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

Chemical Weapons Attacks cause he cant get BT Sport on the Syrian Cable TV Network

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

Why would we need CNN US, since the international version carries most of their programming, often at the same time?

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

For that exact reason is why I don't believe him...

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

Unlikey to happen Virgin Media only signed an new broadcasting deal in January 2013 - that why we got, TCM HD, Cartoon Network HD and TCM2 (Now called TCM +1)

---------- Post added at 16:24 ---------- Previous post was at 16:14 ----------

I have seen rumours going around over the past 24 hours that says new channels are set to launch (or are testing in some Virgin HQ)

I got this update from an Insider at 4.20pm today:

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

CNN International HD has been in the pipeline for quite a while, so I'd suspect that a deal was probably done when the other Turner channels appeared. Don't know that for a fact though.

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

Thanks for the info bud,that's gud enough for me.its back to the waiting game ;)

I cant think what Virgin did with it after NGTV launch in all areas.

yesterday your insider said no info so is the insider just basically saying "still no info of anything"?

I don't think our insiders are giving much away these days. I think they've had a pep talking to by management!

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

My insiders did confirm TCM +1 and Drama was set to launch about 3 to 4 days before launch early this month.

BAF thinks more channels is set to launch in mid September - that over two weeks (14 days) away so I hope to get news confirming them coming in about 10 days from now.

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

Its funny MB cause as soon as you posted this, he then posted on DS to say that the deal was done in January. I had a feeling it was rubbish from the start, he posts so much rubbish on there!

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

I seen that too.

Lol - nice placement! :D

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

If rumours are true and 12 channels launch in September I wonder what they'd be? I count 10 rumoured channels so far. I do love the chase of new channels... Gets the heart beating

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

Oh dear missing the full stops!

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

Confirmed: Virgin Media to repackaged Colors from September 1st.

Virgin Media has reveal that Asian broadcaster Colors will join the M+, L and XL Packages from September 1st.

Colors is on Virgin Channel 826.

Info was found on 'Customer News' on my Virgin box.

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

Media Boy is there any rumors for sky sports 3-4 hd sky3D nat geo wild HD or f1 HD thanks

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

All I have seen is 'Some HD Channels that broadcast on UPC Ireland will launch on Virgin soon.'

''Asian Channel'' did reported on Wednesday that Virgin are testing five channels (with Sky Sports News HD and Disney Channel HD being two of them) in an Virgin local HQ.

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

thanks media boy. I will look forward to the new channels what ever they may by

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

Do Liberty Global have their own 'NetFlix/LoveFilm' offering. They must have the customer base now to make this viable?

If so could it come to the XL package?

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

100% agree, I suggested so in another recent thread its an area where we lost ground over the years

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

Actually, if Liverpool's imvolved, it would be more lkely to be Ashworth.

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

i know the uk has a large asian population but we're completely ignoring european channels!

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

The last time I look on my old Sky Box the only European channel I saw was TV5 and Virgin carry it right now.

Viewers who love European channels need to go to Astra 19.2E for it.

Sky broadcasts at 28E.

---------- Post added at 10:42 ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 ----------

@ Asian Channel.

If Virgin Media are set to launch CNN International HD why have you posted it Channel 610 when Channel 608 is free?

Good rumour if true.

I think the following will happen by May 2014.

163. BBC Three HD
164. BBC Four HD
520. Sky Sports News HD (If the rumours are right about testing)
602. BBC News HD
603. Sky News
604. Sky News HD (May launch with Sky Sports News)
710. CBBC HD
711. CBeebies HD
726. Disney Channel HD (If the rumours are right about testing)

This is Media Boy HQ Views.

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

does any one known what channel numbers the new channel might, virgin don't use logic when it come to d things.like sky sports is 515 you would think sky sports HD will be 516 but virgin might put next to bt sport.

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

Also DS Forum poster 'Steven L Hunter' ask the following last night:

Just to confirm - Virgin Media has given the Local TV Channels Virgin Channel 159 (If they want to launch on Virgin that is).

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

dam it you answer me to quick http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/im...lies/dozey.gif me

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

Will be a bit embarrassing for the BBC/Virgin if both BBC Three/Four HD are higher up the EPG than BBC Two HD

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

I forgot about BBC Two HD being on Channel 187 - so the following may happen:

A)
162. BBC Two HD
163. BBC Three HD
164. BBC Four

B)

163. BBC Alba
164. BBC Two HD
187. BBC Three HD
188. BBC Four HD

Or C)

2xx. BBC Three HD
2xx. BBC Four HD

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

Wonder if there is any chance of Virgin doing a HD swap like sky do.

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

I vote option A personally. However BBC Three/Four/Kids HD will be direct simulcasts with no regional variation so maybe we might see a HD swap in place by May 2014

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

Hope we do get a HD swap one thing I liked when I was with sky made it easier for my wife she hasn't got a clue what the channel numbers are.

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

Would certainly make sense now HD is becoming the norm these days

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

IT wont come to just XL Package this is seperate it will arrive as an app to all as encentive that virgin media is one step ahead i dont see sky doing this for awhile they have never done apps even Telewest was doing apps remember the iceland and Dominos pizza app?;)

That's not actually true, Sky use to have Sky Active which was some app type stuff including Dominos pizza - it all relied on your phoneline though

I've just signed up for my free trial at Netflix.... boy is it good!

Netflix as part of XL would be a massive coup for Virgin Media. Such a good alternative to SKY Movies.

I'm a convert, Netflix is the future!!!

You can get a free week trial of Unblockus; If you think UK Netflix is good, you'll be blown away when you can access all regions.
