Sky have already stated in the press releases that they will launch on VM

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

All info I have seen only state that Sky Max and Sky Showcase will launch still to see info about Sky Max HD - that an new channel.

Sky Max SD is just an new name for Sky Replay.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Sky Replay still has normal listings from 1st of September...on digiguide e.g Stargate Atlantis at 6pm and 7pm , Sky One listings from that date are definitely for Sky Max.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

I did hear that Sky Replay was set to "close" on September 1st what is on Sky Replay on September 2nd at 9pm?

If it A League of Their Own that will be Sky Max from September 1st.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Resident Alien - Series 1 episode 2 (episode 1 is on the day before)

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)

Sky can easy buy FOX Sky's EPG slots on Sky to launch Sky Max and Sky Max HD and also keep Sky Replay on air after August 31st.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Wikipedia still says:

Can you tell me if you can see listing for September 2nd for both Sky Max and Sky Replay?

Will you also PM me with the listing for them?

Here is my own views on the what changes may happen on Virgin Media from September 1st.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Yes - the Sky Max schedule is on Sky One on digiguide

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Thanks.

So base on that info Sky Max is set to launch on Virgin Channel 110 until Sky tell them otherwise.

If Sky Replay is set to stay look out for tests to start for Sky Showcase and Sky Showcase HD on DBR.

@TimeLord. MediaMole has posted the following about Sky Showcase:

https://www.mediamole.co.uk/entertai...se_459089.html

Can you see Sky Showcase listing as posted by Media Mole under any other name?

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Sky Replay is closing, Media Boy.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Just now the schedule for Sky Showcase has turned up on Sky One , it's hard to tell the difference to what it was with Sky Max listings yesterday , yes it has Fresh Prince Of Bel Air along with The Simpsons.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Thanks for confirming. So Sky Showcase is now set to launch on Virgin Channel 110 from September 1st.:confused:

Been told tonight that Sky Max* (If Sky Replay stays) and Sky Max HD* is seen as a new channels so Virgin Media need to sign an new deal with Sky before September 1st to launch them.

The Sky One listings after 1st September will also broadcast on Virgin Media as that channel be the new name for Sky One.

*No listing for that brand has been found by TimeLord on digiguide as of 8.30pm on August 16th.

Also If Sky Replay is set to close why is Sky not reusing it EPG Slot on Sky with E!?

Sky EPG slots now:

122. Sky Arts
130. No Channel
145. Sky Replay
151. E!

Sky EPG slots from September 1st:

122. Sky Crime
130. Sky Arts
145. No Channel
151. E!

With Sky Showcase launching on September 1st what is a point keeping Sky Sports Mix on air as Sky Showcase will broadcast Sport and Movies.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2021)
 

Perhaps Sky Sports Mix is moving back to 145 if Sky Replay closes.
