Channel compression should also show up in the tuner info pages.

Look for channels with H.264 video streams (and also usually AVC audio)

That works. Thank you, Ben.

Legion Season 1 is fandabbydozy. Season 2 is good but confused. Recommend...but just be prepared for weirdness.

You aren't wrong!

I struggled with season 2 at times but stuck with it as I knew the final 2 or 3 eps would be superb, I wasn't disappointed.

Apparently, That's Surrey isn't on VM. I thought that the local channels were 'must carry' at no cost in areas where they operate??

As said above - only applies to Freeview access.

Very few local channels are on VM - even less on Sky.

We get That's Oxfordshire here on Freeview but not on VM. You would think it is That's Berkshire if you watch the news content.

I think the That's channels on VM are mainly due to them taking over previous license holders.
