Bringing up Info now, either by voice control or via the context button there is a new layout.

On the details page, the names of the actors and director have been moved down. You can now highlight and select an actor or director to search and find other titles featuring that person.

excellent! the 360 box is a really good box and seems to be getting better and better!

Shame they couldn't be bothered to fully update the list of channels included on Virgin TV, and still claim that all the following are available:

The other Bundles (Sport Bundle , Cinema Bundle, Sport + Cinema Bundle and Max Volt) still list Sky 2 and Universal !

Haha. So they do!

Apparently the Max Volt bundle also includes Lifetime, Love Nature, Real Lives and Discovery Home and Health.

Maybe we should consider upgrading to receive all these retro channels still available on Virgin Media. ;)

BBC West Midlands HD & ITV Central West HD look to be imminent additions to the West region TV franchise group headends along the Severn valley. These will use the usual additional region slots (Channel 858 for BBC, 870 for ITV). As usual they will be node dependent, so only customers in the actual overlap area will have them viewable.

Are Virgin no longer bothering changing the names of Sky Cinema channels ?

Or could it be - are Sky no longer bothering to request VirginMedia to change the names?

It is a waste of time - Sky Movies Beverley Hills Cop was a change on Saturday to be changed again on Monday.

And Virgin's name change times are different to Sky's.

Tried to add Gogglebox to my watchlist for my wife today, and it wouldn’t add it. Everything else is working OK.

Do you have different profiles set up for yourself and your wife? If so you need to add Gogglebox to your wifes profiles watchlist. It shouldn't appear on any other profile, or the shared profile if it's set up under your wifes profile.

I've just tested by adding CH4 to my Sport profile, and then adding Googlebox to that watchlist. The program appeared under the watchlist on the Home screen on the Sport profile, but didn't show under the watchlist on the Shared profile.
