I currently run Linux Mint Cinnamon but today i've been playing with Jangano which is a Arc based Linux.
I got the Netflix app working on both.

Cinnamon mint is nice and speedy :tu:

Drama in talks with Virgin over launch.

Drama has confirmed today on twitter:

https://twitter.com/drama_channel/st...96429914472448

I'd have thought that the Drama Channel would have been a straight swap for Blighty.

Is the new VOD service "CBS Horror" an on demand service for "horror" on channel 149?

I'd imagine they're working out an EPG slot for it as its a different genre.

So, how comes SKY and Freeview get Drama automatically and Virgin have to negotiate a deal for it? Thought Drama was a straight swap for Blighty, so makes no sense that Virgin have to settle a deal to carry it.

No platform other than Freeview is confirmed AFAIK.

yes was watching BBC 2 HD and the screen went blank, all other HD channels the same, SD is still okay

picture has been bad recently, maybe they are trying to fix the picture break ups have to say SD channels got better since the HD channels went

Maybe it's a quick adjustment as they are about to add Sky Atlantic HD and the BT Sport HD channels! :)
