The directors are probably in the pub right now, checking out what channels they can get free

Director Tv - Learn about Golf on Tv which will be £3.00 per month

Virgin Showcase - Brand new channels are there that we cannot get

Virgin Media bid to buy BSKYB. But cannot agree on what channels to lose

Media News Channels - testing, but cannot show until directors agree on what to charge the customer.

SA. Directors get the channel at last but want to put it on Subscription. Then we see a a Pink Elephant at Gatwick

Looks like Colors HD is coming to VM.

The owners have received an Ofcom licence to broadcast in HD on cable & satellite.

It's not yet known if this will replace or compliment the existing SD service.

Wasn't this a standalone channel before moving into M+ (or the new equivalent)?

This is a Hindi channel and would only be the third Asian channel to broadcast in HD, after the launches of &TV HD and Star Plus HD (don't know if VM have these, or if they're satellite only).

Re: Colors HD, i'm not sure what you mean by "they need a licence to broadcast anywhere" :confused:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

It just mean it can launch or Sky, Freesat and Virgin Media - or even outside the UK.

If Colors is launching an HD Channel (As first reported by Bizasia) it don't mean it set to launch on Virgin Media UK any time soon.

Viacom18 has still to be given to licence for Rishtey Cineplex to launch on Freeview (We look it up on the Ofcom web site early on today).

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

I see what you mean now.

I've since found out that Ofcom no longer require different licenses for SD & HD channels, so it's possible that the SD variant may continue alongside any HD emission and agree that there is no guarantee that this will come to VM (not that I imagine many will be too bothered!)

Re: RT. As things stand, I think that there's more chance that RT will be removed from VM Ireland than be added to the UK service!!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

South Asian channels all seem to be in a 4:3 aspect ratio, so I'm not too sure how much of am improvement HD would be. Like Rishtey Cineplex, Colors belongs to Viacom 18, so probably as much chance of Colors HD arriving on VM as Rishtey Cineplex.

Re: RT on VM Ireland.

This article (courtesy of Damian) says that RBS/NatWest have denied closing or freezing the RT bank accounts:

http://www.scotsman.com/news/politic...unts-1-4260808

Apparently, a redacted letter to a supplier of RT was used to spread this false rumour by RT. Did they really think that they would get away with this?

I don't think that, even if it were to be true, that we need any lessons from Russia about free speech.

If this is the level of 'journalism' that they are stooping to, they should be stopped from broadcasting to the UK and Ireland anyway.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

..... I watch Russia Today on Freeview and I have to disagree with revoking their licence.

Even if a viewer did not know that RT was a Putin propaganda machine, they would know after a few minutes of viewing.

With the problems that exist with Russia, I think its useful to get their "take" on things, however warped they maybe. I think its important to see what the Russian people are watching everyday on their screens and what Putin is telling them and hiding from them.

So no, I don't think it should be banned but what should be banned is some of our fellow "countrymen" who appear on the channel regularly. As they clearly love Putin so much, we should invite them to live there with him and never come back here...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

I wonder if it is actually the case that RT shows a mirror of Russian domestic output?

Perhaps it's tailored to the oversees audience (unless it's a simulcast of a channel that also broadcasts to Russia?)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

The trouble is, its never going to give the Russian "take" on things. It isn't there to inform anyone about what Russia is doing. More to undermine and spread misinformation about the west. A mix of propaganda and divide and rule tactics.

I suspect also that we are coming to the end of the era of new channels arriving on Virgin Media. On demand material and apps are the way ahead judging by what has been coming out of Liberty Global. Content is what matters now, not channels.

Channel 100 on Virgin Media UK is showing Kids channels next week.

As of tonight:

-Monday - Nickelodeon will be shown from 6am.
-Tuesday - Cartoon Network will be shown from 6am.

Our V+ HD box only show listing up to Tuesday night at 1am.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

I wonder if channel 100 is now being used in a similar way to the old Guest Channel?

Cartoon Network ends at 5:59 Wednesday on channel 100, then on 31/10/16 it's TCM for the day.

My EPG only goes up until 2am on 3/12/16.

Don't forget that it's possible to record from these channels and watch the programmes after the Freeview ends.

It's only Sky channels that don't allow you to watch recorded content after you stop subscribing (or any Freeview period ends) to one of their channels.

The full version of the Exorcist is on TCM at 9pm on 31/10/16 for Halloween for anyone who wants to see it.

Edit:

Just realised that there's more on offer than what's on channel 100:

These channels will be temporarily available in all packages:

From 5 October until 4 November:

TCM
TCM HD
TCM +1
Cartoon Network
Cartoon Network +1

From 7 October until 6 November:

•Comedy Central Extra +1
•MTV CLASSIC (Broadcasts in Virgin Media Ireland areas right now).
•MTV MUSIC +1

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

My guess is that this deal was signed months ago and any linear channels that were agreed as part of the deal have already launched (eg Spike, 5 Star+1).

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

Is that inside information or just what you have read from the article?

It does say:

The partnership ensures Virgin Media customers will continue to enjoy favourite networks like MTV, Comedy Central and Nickelodeon as well as bringing new channels, additional catch up TV and box sets to Virgin Media’s TV platform.

However, they may mean 'channels' in the broader sense, or they may be referring to the additional channels on TV Anywhere.

That theory makes sense but with VM you can never be totally sure. :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

I am now starting to get really fed up with VM. Firstly our bill arrived today, and increase of £5.00 which is staggering. As there is nothing new with VM

We get told the same old stuff from VM. No increase in channels, and yet we 'are' told BT Sport is FREE. What a load of crap.

VM have put the prices is up to cover the cost of BT Sport.
We are told that ' we give our customers the best entertainment possible' but at what cost.

I for one does not have a bottomless pocket.

Yes, I am still with VM. BUT, have Sky Tv too. My wife is a VM to the core. On Sky, we just have the Basics. (that was a compromise)

As VM gave my wife a deal that she couldn't turn down. BUT, then we had an email to say the price had gone up.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

'Made In' took it over didn't they, that's why I'm wondering if they will also take over Oxfordshire.

If Local TV does survive as a network, I can see one dominant player (apart from the STV stations) networking programmes with budget local news opt outs.

Perhaps Made Television LTD will become the Carlton/Granada of Local TV :D

I think that they would have been better quasi networking a FTA channel that's not on DTT.

Apparently, there is a Technical Difficulties' caption on air.

Facebook statement: "Due to technical difficulties our news programme is unable to broadcast. We will be back as soon as possible." Similar message on twitter.

Also, That's Lancashire is said to have been the same for the past month.

What's That's Lancashire showing on VM (if it's carried)?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

None of the That's TV channels are currently carried on VM. That's Solent is in the SDT but not in the Network Information Table for any of the 68 "networks" on the ex-Telewest/ex-C&W/ex-Smallworld part of the system - and That's Solent would be on that part of the system (if it had been added) rather than the ex-NTL Langley platform.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

In my assessment, that's the only model that's likely to work. There may also be scope for some locally sponsored programming, but I think that is likely to be very limited.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

Local content is something the BBC does well, so no wonder it became a target. "Lets see if we can get other organisations to take it away from the BBC" was no doubt the conversation. The thing is ITV have been dropping the level of local content for years. It costs money to make programmes week after week for smaller audiences, so the commercial sector was always going to struggle even with some volunteer staff & "propping up" from the public purse.

Wether or not they've improved i don't know but VM kept demanding over £100 from me saying i owe them money which i don't, despite me proving i owe nothing they kept harping on saying i do.
It was only after a strong worded solicitors letter that VM stopped hounding me.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

It's a shame that you had that experience, theone, but frankly that can happen with any company. I think BT is far worse when it comes to ripping off customers, and they get far more complaints than VM or Sky.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

Maybe Made TV will buy up the rest of local TV Channels in England and Wales and become the Channel 6 like the first idea the "Media MP" has before moving to NHS England.

We have got STV Local on Channel 6 on our Freeview TV.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

Fingers crossed they will be launching other channels as they have mentioned the launch of Spike as a separate footnote within the press release? I mean, to some it probably won't mean much but I have mentioned this in the past but I do miss MTV Classic. :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
 

If Viacom wants Virgin Media UK to carry MTV Classic and Nick Jr HD so bad they can ask Virgin Media UK to drop two channels - Let say MTV Live HD and one of the less watched +1 channels.

In the past UKTV has ask Virgin to drop channels now called Eden +1 and Yesterday +1 so that channels now called W and W +1 was on Virgin from launch.
