Did Sky think that however, when HD was a "tiny minority"? Now everyone wants more HD! Now is a good time to start offering some 3D content I think.

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
 

I really hope those with 3d enjoy Eurosport when it launches.

Doubt will join you as sitting at home wearing silly specs to watch telly does not appeal to me.... or do you not wear silly specs nowadays??

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
 

I already wear glasses so wearing them for 3D doesn't really bother me.

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
 

Have a 3D TV so will look forward to watching this.

I'm a very mature ten! :)

Yeah, me too, but unless you have very good 3D goggles (or prescription 3D spectacles :)), it's not easy, is it? :(

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
 

Is this an attempt at replacing some of the DirectGov etc. pages we lost a while back?

It can also be accessed at Interactive > News & Info. > Looking Local via the remote.

Well luckily I have a full keyboard for my Pace Set-Top-Box or otherwise it would be difficult to use this service. It's cumbersome to enter alphabetic characters using a standard remote and even navigating the screens is hard.

I expect that it will be easier to use on a TiVo remote when it becomes available through TiVo boxes.

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
 

I noticed my v box (HD) must have had a firmware/epg update the first menu's been consolidated down now, (anything like catch up/on demand/search etc is still dreadfully slow on use though)

I also seem to have a confused box, on demand shows both L & XL options, even though I'm an XL customer, and some shows on demand show multiple entries of the same episode, albeit with one entry showing white, and the repeats as grey. Just me or is anyone else having the same?

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
 

Our tivo must be confused as well as ours give the option for L & XL as well could be a glitch.

Re: Virgin Media Changelog
 

That 'L/XL' thing for TV Choice has been there since April when it launched for TV L customers

The consolidation of the On Demand options on the V Box is part of this update http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/11...-v-update.html
