Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Hmm, yes. I've had the V+ box for a good couple of years now. 1 linear HD channel, and some pretty poor content on demand in HD. Not impressed but money talks...I can get all services a lot cheaper with VM than I can with BT/Sky so I stay.

It's bound to be crappy 4hd or itvhd oh the excitement!!!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Can't agree with the "pretty poor content" comment: the quantity may be low but the quality (esp. BBC and HBO) is hardly bottom drawer...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

well i would have liked that for the champions league and any extra HD can only be a good thing.

I'll still hold judgement till I see it

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Two channels has today been removed from Virgin TV as my ''Total Channels'' has now been cut to 307 in an Ex-Telewest area.

I think the channels was removed from ''Catch-up on Demand''.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

....the channel numbers change constantly as some of them are hidden channels used for PPV events and other applications.

I've yet to see any tests which indicate a new channel launch is imminent.

Virgin will release info

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Personally id rather they added nothing than add those channels but I guess it all depends on what you want from your tv viewing really. :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

yeah thats true mediaboy ther has been two removed from the epg but also has anybody else noticed the extra content on what were watching on the more on demand section as there is more hd content on there

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Someone ask Virgin Media via Twitter if the Virgin was in talks with Sky with an view of the ''Red Button'' being added to Sky Sports.

And he got this back:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

I have two pointers, to ask forum members, 1. At the moment we cannot use RED button due to a techincal fault, and 2, Why can't we get TEXT on cable via the handset.

Also, you mention that we can get HD content on demand, this to me is not HD channels, they way l look, there won't be a lot of HD channels, for Sky, there will probabely be +1 channels, and this is not alot is it, l thought that VM was a 21st century company ?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

First I've heard of it.

Which channels?
What town?
What happens when you press red, or is that prompt not displayed at all?
Who has told you it is a technical fault?


(mods: this is clearly off-topic. Could you split into a separate thread?)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Ummm so what was the surprise?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

If I had an HD channel on Sky for everytime someone posted that more HD channels were coming to cable instantly.....

.....oh I already do :D
