When the NFL season finishes,I wonder if it will go back to Sky Action?

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
 

Hmm you would think so because NFL is quite a short season isnt it. its barely 4 months long which is just odd considering its "americans number 1 sport". Based on that you would think it would change over but i think part of the NFL contract with Sky is to have its own channel aka NFL Network in the UK full time.

Arent the drafts in April too. so they'll probably talk about the draft from April to September and all the pre season stuff. i think this will be more like sky f1 which goes on about 8 months of the year and for 4 months of the year is just repeats. Though to be honest i'm annoyed at the lack of classic F1 races shown. i want 1970s and 1980s matches! Except its always "Oh look its the 2011 italian grand prix...again"

Surprised they didn't try to get the NFL Network as a whole.

Sky 2 is now Sky Replay on VM.

I'm sure everyone's relieved. :D

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
 

Nice to see VM catching up with everyone else :D:p:

ABC Studios content is to be removed from Virgin Media from 31st October 2020.

The range of on demand programmes from ABC Studios has been available in Box Sets for all XL / Full House TV customers for many years.

I assume it's part of Disney taking more control of its content.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
 

This has always been a non exclusive package... Amazon carries the shows and TalkTalk struck a deal with them in 2018 with Sky getting rid of them some time back. Interesting to see if this is just Virgin’s deal ending or whether the deals with the other providers are expiring as well.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
 

If the ABC content deal is ending, presumably this means that a new Disney deal to cover their remaining services has been agreed.

Their kids channels are closing soon too, but that's on every UK platform.

Has the Radioline app been removed from the V6? I am getting a message redirecting me to BBC Sounds or the linear Radio Channels.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
 

That is the message l am getting as well this morning.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
 

It's not currently available with the latest V6 code update that is rolling out. A fix is being looked at with the app developers as far as I'm aware.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
 

How annoying. Given the poor selection of radio stations in the EPG I use the Radioline app a lot, so hopefully they will fix it soon.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
 

It's apparently available on Horizon so I'd be very surprised if this wasn't fixed. My reasoning being if it's on the new platform it's not like VM haven't got a continuing deal in place with the developers.

Plus it's bound to be a small change that broke it, so more likely to be a quick and easy fix.
