The HD picture wasn't much better I don't think the amount of smoke in the stadium helped things

As with all new technology, it takes a while to iron out the teething problems. Maybe that's why it's taking the beeb so long to launch their UHD fayre. I don't think it would go down too well if they launched an inferior product.

Have to agree, I switched back to BT sport channel which was better.

Eurosport will be launching a temporary UHD channel to cover the French Open. Virgin Media will be carrying it.

VM confirm the Champions League final WILL be in UHD for V6 customers

Subscribers to Virgin TV’s Full House offering with a new V6 box will be able to watch the game on BT Sport 2 HD on channel 528 and will be presented with the option of watching in UHD on both BT Sport 1 HD and BT Sport 2 HD by pressing the red button on their remote.

David Bouchier, chief digital entertainment officer at Virgin Media, said: “The UEFA Champions League final is the biggest night of the year in international club football and we know our customers will relish the opportunity to get as close as possible to the action by watching in Ultra HD. Showing this game in Ultra HD is another example of our fantastic sports offering and look out for more exciting announcements to come in the near future.”

Yes, getting some movement at last. Hopefully, Virgin Movies and the Virgin Exclusives On Demand will follow soon. Looking forward to that!

Not working here.

Is it for only a few testers?

Hooray, working now.

Thanks.

Btw, it is via Red Button from channel 100.

Now it is only showing in 1080 with BT 4K logo.

Allows me to view it. Says BT Sport 4k in the corner. But it's only outputting 1080p

Re: UHD on Virgin Media
 
I beleive you should only have the two 2160p options set. Switching hasn't seemed to work correctly for a while.
