Yup there is a delay. Shows why there hasn't been any publicity around it yet

Media Boy EXCLUSIVE: Gems TV sold to new owners?

I have been told tonight that Gems TV Holdings Limited who own Gems TV (on Virgin Channel 755/756) has been sold to The Colourful Company Group Limited.

again why do we get left behide for

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

because VM are too slow to come last in terms of getting carrage deals sorted for new HD channels launching.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

They're probably negotiating to get the best deal as they did with the original ESPN channels. I remember we were all complaining about the lack of announcement for ESPN HD, then we all cheered up when VM announced they were including it as part of the XL package ;) It's a paid for extra on Sky so I guess Sky don't have the same issue here.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Can someone remind me, are Sky still getting Film Four HD before Virgin?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Its the other way round. VM are getting it before Sky.

A few of the Movie channels will be getting renumbered from the 24th June. Not sure if this will have anything to do with the Sky HD movies?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Oh OK, I was under the impression that Sky got everything before Virgin.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Not this time.;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

I think Virgin will move all the Movies channels about on June 24th that have not got the Sky Brand on them - to make room for the Sky Movies HD Channels to launch on an later date.

Sky Sports News going HD and being dropped from Freeview, to be replaced by Sky 3 + 1:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

It is all the non Sky movie channels that are moving. They are moving down to be closer to the existing Sky movie channels.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Please forgive an old man if he has got it all wrong, but I was under the impression not everybody could get the VM HD channels until this security thingy we have have new cards for has been implemented. Is this fully rolled out yet? If not, it is hardly surprising VM are keeping quiet about more HD channels following the outcry when it was discovered some people could not receive them.

Presumably, once this is fully up and running we could be in for pleasant surprises.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

All digital customers have the choice of going HD with VM. The NGTV rollout completed at the end of May. :)

Not true anymore, alot of negotiating is going on in regards to HD channels. Remember there is a target of 20-30 channels this year ;)
