Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

Has something changed, MB? Your post on X appears to have been taken off. I can find no reference to such a deal being signed anywhere other than through your posts.

I fully expect Discovery + to launch on VM, but it would be good if it was sooner rather than later.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

Nothing has change since November 1st here is a link to that story you are asking me about - Warner Bros Discovery signs new deal with Virgin Media.

The story is no longer at the top of my X Feed due to so many new story's breaking since November 1st.

Also I can only post up to SIX links on my PIN post on my X Feed at the once time.

NOTE: I was told the deal was only signed on October 31st so I don't see Discovery+ launch on TV360 and Virgin Media Stream boxes until Mid 2024.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

Thanks, MB, that suits me as I need everything in place before I switch to Virgin Stream in December 2024, when my existing contract runs out.

The Asian Mela bundle has gone free for all customers until November 20th to celebrate Diwali

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

I'd expect full integration like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+ , Paramount and Apple TV+ , If wasn't for that it could probably appear sooner.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

so all the new streaming apps are coming to tv360 ? and yet tv360 is still apparently atrocious?

hmm.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

No, it's not, Vince. I changed over to the 360 some time ago and I prefer it to the V6 TiVo.

Obviously it doesn't have exactly the same features as the TiVo and I think that is really what most detractors are unhappy about.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

On the 360 it is the recording/wistlist options which are poor when compared to V6.
Overall the 360 is a better unit.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

+1.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

Do brand new subscribers to the 360 get a primary box that will record or are they all streaming only? If it can record, how many tuners does it have?

Is it just Wishlists that are missing now? What about Suggestions and QuickView?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

360 has hard drive with 6 tuners unlike mini boxes or Virgin Stream, It has TV show recommendations on 360 , Wishlists is a patented TiVO function so I doubt that will ever get added.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

I wonder if Suggestions is also patented, so they got round it by creating Recommendations?? If so, they should do the same with the Wishlist function.

The only thing missing then would be QuickView. I doubt that this function is patented as I think YouTube has something similar.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

currently got 3 v6s around the house. dont like losing all that capacity by going down to one box and two minis

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

Wonder if there would be the ability to record programs on the 360 from any of the channels that it appears on into one collection. I'm sure we used to have it on one of its predecessors.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
 

When I made the switch to 360 both my V6 boxes were updated so I kept the recording capacity of both boxes. However, by making the switch I lost all my V6 recordings as the software is quite different. With the two boxes I get to choose which one any particular show is recorded to.
