Well we shall see bud as l have heard nothing so far.

Seems all three of the big providers are looking to 4K

Looks good but they will want the customer to fork up even more of their hard earned money methinks.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Just found this on the VM community forum:

http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...n/td-p/2733281

Apparently the FOX channels have been withdrawn from Virgin.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

FOX HD is still broadcasting on channel 158 :confused:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Can someone check their box? Can't remember whether it was on TVAnywhere?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Fox is still broadcasting on TiVo this morning.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

As the poster on the community forums was browsing the TV listings guide maybe they're talking about TVAnywhere?

Don't have TV anymore so can't check, Fox was one of the 3 channels i watched when i did have it.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Along the same lines.

We have just been given an update:

As it stands this app will allow you to -

-watch your recorded programmes from your tivo box,
-Watch and rewind/restart every live channel you are subscribed to, even ones without a catch up service
-Stream to a tv that has a chromecast dongle connected
-capture clips from TV and upload to social media

Media Boy HQ has just been told by Virgin Media sources:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Message on FOX is reportedly 'A mistake' and is being looked into.

According to someone on VM website who has been told by Admin.

Lots of hearsay but that's what I've read :) lol

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Lets hope that the broadcasters don't restrict this like they do with tivos MRS

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I can assure you FOX isn't leaving vm yet.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Yet?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

As in anything can change in the future.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

It won't be.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

lol

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

This Transfer Deadline Day has got a lot to answer for.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Think VM should get involved in the Deadline Day

They could always do a swap-deal involving Atlantic, maybe Ginx or something :D

But I guess that's like swapping Luke Chadwick for Messi :td:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

same here ;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

If Virgin Media did drop FOX UK That would Make The Walking Dead Fans Unhappy lol.

---------- Post added at 16:04 ---------- Previous post was at 15:55 ----------

FOX UK is 1 of My Favourite TV Channels on VM With Lots of Good TV Shows That I Watch Such as: Falling Skies, Da Vinchies Demons, Tyrant, American Horror Story, The Walking Dead, Murder in The First etc and is Looking Forward to Seeing Wayward Pines which is Coming to Fox UK in May 2015.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I agree, FOX has a lot of great shows and maybe surpasses Atlantic in the amount of quality too.
Would be madness if VM lost this. Can't happen though can it? surely not?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

If it does go, I hope it at least waits until after the current new season of NCIS finishes.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Is the liking of these shows anything to do with your username.......:D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

No lol I Just Like Watching Them Thats all!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Agree best channel on TV :tu:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

One of the best l would say.:)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Agreed, where FOX goes I go, so it would be goodbye from me if VM lost this. Somebody on the VM forum mentioned it could be only be to do with TVAnywhere even if it was true but I will see if anything comes of this. Think it is a mistake personally as don't think VM would be that stupid and have another Sky One situation as they did a few years back.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Isn't it a bit bizarre that VM would 'just happen' to have a pop-up ready. Why would you even do one.

I thought the same, I see Sky One's channel number is the new slot it moved to last year so it's not an 'old' pop up.

Has it been posted early?

When did Fox's carriage deal start?

It lists FoxHD and Fox+ which aren't on TVAnywhere?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Haha, purely as speculation just imagine if Sky said "if you want Atlantic, you must lose FOX."

What would people prefer Atlantic or FOX?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

FOX for me personally, my view on Atlantic is well known. I'd have to drop the XL package down to L or even M+ if FOX did go.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

No contest, defo Atlantic!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

It seems odd that the broadcasters would allow streaming to another device (which is surely less secure) yet not via MRS to another TiVo?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Don't worry we're sure to have an app with only 2 channels that you can actually stream :angel:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

You could use the money saved to get Now TV, which has both Fox and Atlantic.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I've used NOWTV on and off for about six months, it was a bit hit and miss at first but it's really stable now and to be honest i'm thinking of ditching VM top package, and using NOWTV.

You can get some great deals on passes on EBay.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I don't completely trust it for live sports as it occasionally freezes and I have to go in and out to get it working again!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Virgin help and support have said that Fox being withdrawn is an error ! http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...2733281/page/2

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

glad that cleared it up now :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Glad Fox is staying. That had me worried. I hope we will see History HD added this year

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

The last deal with the owners of HISTORY was signed in May 2013.

http://mediaboyblog.blogspot.co.uk/2...on-virgin.html

If it an two year deal History HD may launch on Virgin Media in May.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

They would have had a riot if that was true.;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Could we have Fox News as well.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

We have - it called Sky News:D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

l don't want that rabid right wing rubbish Richard.:nono:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

That's easy for you to say! :D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I don't know its always good for a laugh.;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Will they do show bits of Fox News is on The Daily Show on Comedy Central Extra.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

:clap::clap::clap::clap:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

The Daily Show is fantastic. If you want to watch Fox News for the comedy value then The Daily Show effectively does it for you and means you don't have to watch 24/7 waiting for a moment.

Sky News, however, is actually quite decent and nothing like Fox News.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

aye id want this as well for the comedy purposes!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Sky News is akin to a tabloid newspaper, whilst BBC News is akin to a broadsheet.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Really with the way the BBC News behaved over the breaking Cliff Richard story it was more akin to how a red top would behave Richard.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Well said, Richard. Precisely thus.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

SkyNews has to be impartial by law. Fox News proclaims it is but acts otherwise.

---------- Post added at 10:21 ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 ----------

Agreed. Key difference to me is that Sky News will lead on stories even if not 100% sure whilst BBC News will go through a longer verification process. In this way, they nicely complement each other.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

A left of centre broadsheet rather than a neutral one, unfortunately.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Just balances all the right wing broad sheets then.;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

What, like The Guardian?? :shocked:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I had to laugh earlier. Obviously the current story is about Ed Balls forgetting the name of one of the Labour party's biggest supporters. Of course the BBC can't ignore this story because it happened on their newsnight programme when they were trying to provide him with the chance to prove he isn't anti-business, but h fluffed his lines. So earlier they ran a big piece, presumably to provide balance, comparing it to David Cameron forgetting the name of a constituency five years ago!

The sad thing is I'm not even sure they know they're doing it.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Learnt last night that, as far as VM are aware, Sky Bravo is officially dead in the water.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I thought the best quote was when Cameron said in the Commons that "Bill someone was a Labour policy" Great quip.

OK, back on topic.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Never really understood why sky wanted to launch it anyway other than to be vindictive to withhold more channels. They're like itv. They have more channels than content but still seem hell bent on launching more channels

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Which I presume was Sky's answer to VM who I believe will have attempted to link carriage of this proposed channel with Sky Atlantic!

Ah well, it was a nice thought.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Sky killed Bravo when they bought it from Virgin,didn`t they?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Yes indeed and its sad as loved the old Bravo channel.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Has any more ITV areas been switched on Virgin Media?

http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/ne...ply&p=35757153

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Just done a survey about Sky considering launching a new channel that is sports based and would be available to Sky tv customers as a basic channel It would show things like soccer am,replays of premier league games and classic matches. They were trying to see if I`d become a sky tv customer if it was launched. It also asked bizarrely whether I`d become a Sky tv customer if the proposed channel was available on Freeview! Anyone else heard about this or done the survey on Toluna?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Media Boy HQ did hear rumours of Sky moving things like Soccer AM and WWE to an Sky Basic channel was rumour at the time of being called "Sky Bravo". We also hear that Sky was thinking about axing Sky Arts 2 to make an "Sky Arts Super Channel".

That rumour was over an year ago.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Nope, as ITV haven't changed any others.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Thanks for update.

---------- Post added at 15:02 ---------- Previous post was at 14:56 ----------

a516 Digital is reporting that That's Solent has launched in Southampton/Portsmouth on Virgin Media.

Can anyone confirm?

http://www.a516digital.com/2014/08/i...le-on-sky.html

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I did too sir! A classic channel of unique trash I found strangely fascinating. The thing with most channels now is they need to provide fairly good programming. With bravo anything good in theory could get on air. Always worth a laugh!

As for Fox News this is why I want the channel it's comedy gold!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Ok perhaps they`re still considering it then,eh? The survey didn`t mention any possible names for the proposed new channel just its possible content.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Media Boy HQ has just found this:

http://www.thatssolent.com/tune-in.html

Any one confirmed?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

If Wight Cable are picking up Solent TV, they must be carrying the channel way out of the freeview broadcast area. Could it be they can't block at the headend like VM?
On a related note, surely by now VM could distribute channels via packages postcode which releases the EPG channels, like freesat or sky, rather than this old fashioned headend business, which leaves some with and without channels they could get through freeview?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

That's TV Solent own main page says that they broadcast in:

-Southampton
-Portsmouth
-Isle of Wight.

http://www.thatssolent.com/index.html

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

That's Solent is not currently on VM

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Thanks.

Media Boy Views:

Virgin Media is 8 years old on Sunday.

Virgin Media TV prices has now gone up but Media Boy HQ has not seen info on any new channels set to launch on Virgin Media any time soon.

So we feel the prices JUST want up to pay for both Sky Sports News HQ HD and Sky News HD.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

That sounds about right mate. Happy Birthday for Sunday!

So I'm guessing your DNPs do not relate to channel launches then? :D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Congratulations for Sunday! :)

Prices go up because VM thinks they will get more money by putting them up. They're not directly related to the number of channels etc.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Exactly channels are only part of the costs , there are many other things like product development costs , broadband upgrades , wages , marketing etc.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

That being the case, our best hope is the Amazon Prime app, but I think that is unlikely at this stage.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

What is the DNP orders?

1) Something that is not coming to Virgin Media anytime soon.
2) Just rumours - not confirmed by Virgin Sources.
3) Info was lifted on Saturday and Monday.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

What? :confused:

If it's not coming soon why is it a 'do not post' order? Is it that they don't want us to know that nothing is coming soon? This doesn't make sense.

And what information was lifted on Saturday and Monday? Was it 1 above?

MB, we deserve a better explanation! ;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Indeed but many feel we are now at that price ceiling Andrew for what we are getting so my advice to them for the future is don't get too greedy as sooner rather then later Virgin and other pay TV companies might be in for a rude shock as more customers then ever start to desert them.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

A) My Virgin Source told me not to reveal the name of that "Something not coming to Virgin Media" online.
B) Info that was lifted was the news of an new app for TiVo viewers that will launch later this year.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I thought we had reached it some time ago but but I was proved wrong. The latest thing has been upping line rental substantially. I hope Vodafone's entry into the market helps keep prices down but the amalgamation of O2 and 3 should see a rise in mobile phone tarriffs as per the experience in Austria. Analysts Jefferies stated “Austria is the classic case in which low-tier (€7-10) price points were raised by €5-10 post-consolidation with mid/high-tier segments also stepping up later.” http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/5b937fea-a...#axzz3QQrHhdOU (registration needed)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Thanks for clearing that up MB! I bet I can guess what is is that 'is not coming to Virgin Media'!

Glad to see there is a potential new app. Just hope it's Amazon Prime!

So, if I understood correctly, your source has asked you not to name the channel (Sky Atlantic) that will not be coming to virgin anytime soon.

If so then MB my friend I think you been had

I thought he was for new cloud based app that was coming to TiVo?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Yep that's the one

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

What a load of pish, dont post something because its not coming, jesus H!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

I mentioned this on another thread (maybe over on the VM forums) so the app will allow you to:

"Watch your recorded programmes from your TiVo box"

Does this mean MRS restrictions will also be removed so all channels can be steamed between TiVo's? Seems odd that the broadcasters would allow unrestricted streaming via the app which is surely less secure than TiVo to TiVo streaming?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Either that or the same channels that are permitted for MRS will only work for watching on the app

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Remember that questionnaire about things we'd like to come to virgin media? Such as free Netflix in XL? Whatever happened to that...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

It was just that, a questionnaire.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

These things take time, Vince....

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
 

Aye gaffer I suppose. Thought we would have had some news before the price increase to keep us sweet! Never mind!
