That can only mean they had a stake in the company. Even if they didn’t, if they’re being named in any sort of court document then that information is public domain and you really don’t need to be worrying about it.

I wonder if ITV are owed money for use of their channel overnight.

Again, a company is found to be owing Virgin a huge amount of money. It goes to show that Virgin are willing to let channels go into arrears. Sky are much less tolerant and channels are removed from the EPG if they get behind with their monthly payments.

If only they were as lenient with their domestic customers!

Yup. There are various ways around this that company directors can use, so they would have done this if they had any concerns about this being public knowledge.

I wasn't getting at the initial post that contained those details, that info is relevant, I was referring to the posts that came afterwards.

It's a pity we don't know the timespan in order to work out how much they pay ITV/STV for their airtime.

The fees owed to VM cover transmission and the EPG slots. The fees owed to Sky are likely just for the EPG slots as they pay transmission fees to Astra.

​Various changes taking place on 25th May. It's a mixture of closures and swaps. One is billed on Freeview website as a "name change" but it actually seems to be change of different sort, a channel turning into a IP Portal Service or a launch screen for the App of the same name.

The following is mostly a copy and paste of the link posted at the bottom.

"Channel Name Changes
Current Name / New Name / Channel Number

Pop Max becomes Pop Player 208

Channel Number Changes
Channel / Current Number / New Number

Horror

69 -->41

CBS Justice

41 -->69

Channel Closures
Channel / Channel Number

Kiss Chat and Date 252

Proud Dating 253

ADULT Xpanded 678

Together TV 790 (this is just the slate left after it moved to COM7)


Changes to Pop Max includes increase in coverage with the channel now only available on internet connected devices.

There will be no changes to broadcast hours for these channels.  "

I think Freeview mean a ADULT Xpanded old slot on COM5.

ADULT Xpanded did only move to COM6 last month when W was launching.

I feel Pop Player will launch on SDN Mux.

I assume Horror is more popular than CBS Justice so the company is just swapping the channels over to reflect this.

It specifically gives the lower channel number, so I don't think it is, but we'll see.

I agree about Pop Player thing being on SDN, all the other IP Portals and IP services are to my recollection.

That was my conclusion too.

The Pop Player App has been on Freeview for quite some time, possibly since Freeview Play launched, so I don't think this.

The Children's section of the Freeview EPG allows for a mix of broadcast and IP services, all other categories of channel, except Adult, have to be in the IP section.
------
I read something elsewhere were it was suggested that Pop Max becoming Pop Player on 208, rather than being a static information slate with a Red Button prompt to launch the App, or a IP Portal implementation similar to the App, as I had assumed.

And instead it might actually be a linear IP stream of Pop Max, rather than a still information slate, with a Red Button prompt to launch into Pop Player.
