...cheers SP.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Gold Radio is still on Virgin Channel 959 in Media Boy HQ.

If Gold Radio do move it look like Virgin Media has signed an new deal with Global Radio unless Global Radio has told Virgin Media to move Gold Radio.

If new deal has been signed we may also get:

•Capital FM TV
•Heart FM TV
•The Arrow
•Smooth Radio Extra (Only on DAB and Virgin?)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Iptv will expand big time look at Youview for example, don't be surprised to see the connect services arrive on Tivo in due time.
I doubt anything like vutv will launch on tivo as that would rival vms own offering of channels such as history etc.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Have virgin media released anything about world box??? No announcements whatsoever. Seems very odd for no press release or information on it?? A lot of people having to check if its chargeable by coming onto forums etc and finding out...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Can any one else hear Gold Radio on Virgin Channel 923?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

nope...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Yes, it doesn't seem to have moved yet. Yet they were running adverts all day yesterday promoting the channel move so unless it happens during the day sometime the move must have been cancelled.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Virgin Media moves channels on Tuesdays to Thursdays.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

That's what I was thinking, but every ad break they had yesterday, they were saying from Monday Gold is moving from channel 959 on Virgin to channel 923. Probably move overnight tonight then.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

No (London area) but was expecting to as my wife heard on air announcement that it was moving to Channel 923 today.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Not an fan of Gold Radio so Media Boy HQ did not hear any announcement.

---------- Post added at 13:18 ---------- Previous post was at 13:03 ----------

With Gold Radio set to move to Channel 923 soon here is the full list of Global Radio Channels on Virgin Media in the Radio area of the EPG right now:

Note: the ones inside the (text) may move later this week on Virgin Media.

Global Radio Channels numbers (May happen later this week):
-916. Smooth FM (Maybe rebrand as Smooth Radio)
-918. Heart London
-919. LBC News 1152 (May move for LBC to use slot)
-921. (Capital London)
-922. Classic FM
-923. (Gold Radio)
-925. (XFM London)
-926. (Capital Xtra)
-929. (LBC or LBC News 1152)

If Gold Radio do move it look like Virgin Media has signed an new deal with Global Radio unless Global Radio has told Virgin Media to move Gold Radio.

If new deal has been signed we may also get:

•Capital FM TV
•Heart FM TV
•The Arrow
•Smooth Radio Extra (Only on DAB and Virgin?)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

To be fair, the radio section of the EPG could use some tidying up.

---------- Post added at 14:32 ---------- Previous post was at 14:24 ----------

Global are making various changes to their channel portfolio on DAB and it is possible that there will be knock on effects for carriage on VM and other platforms. Maybe VM will be getting the new "Heart Extra" channel when it launches on DAB.

Also, if you are wildly speculating about Global adding every channel in their portfolio, don't forget that they still operate Chill.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

I believe Global are going to be launching quite a few new stations next year the first will be heart Extra which will replace smooth xmas

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Re: LFC TV HD. Talks have ended without an agreement for carriage on VM.

Numbers subscribing to the channel on the Sky platform are a lot lower than expected.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

That's what you get when you are greedy.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Don't know if any channels added or what, but Gold radio has definitely moved to 923 now.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

I can see them going back to VM with their tail between their legs in the not too distant future...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

You'd have to be a total obsessed fan to pay for a channel of your team.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Not really, the model to follow is Benfica TV HD which as well as being the club channel shows a lot of other good sporting events, it's something I believe MUTV is trying to emulate having shown quite a few live international matches since they bought themselves out.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

News just in:

Fans of Liverpool FC TV will need to pay £7 per month extra.

LFC TV has relaunch on Virgin Channel 544 today.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

wow, Liverpool FC or Now TV which will include Sky Atlantic, take your pick

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Does that include HD variant or not?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Expensive for a one sport channel. One for the avid fan.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Seen no information on Liverpool FC TV HD channel coming to Virgin Media any time soon.

Info on LFC TV launching today was given to Media Boy HQ late yesterday afternoon (Only seen it today.)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Might be different on Virgin but on SKY i believe the HD variant is a extra £1.50 i might be wrong though.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Only the SD Channel has launch on Virgin Media today.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

No it isn't.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

More Radio channels has moved.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

More info here http://www.liverpoolfc.com/lfctv/virgin
The LFC TV holding page which said "bear with us" proved to be correct afterall.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Thanks for clearing that up - i did say i might be wrong though.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Any ideas what to expect for new channels next year. Any channel contacts up renew

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Official post about LFC returning https://community.virginmedia.com/t5...PG/m-p/2569267

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

That was a lot quicker than I ever expected! Looks like LFC looked at the poor takeup on Sky and decided to accept VM terms after all :D

If Sky have the SD and HD variants and VM just the SD version, I wonder if Sky have agreed to this to make the channel viable, given the very poor take up on the Sky platform?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Looks like SD only currently

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

I was told that talks had ended without agreement the preceding week on Sunday evening- so, the deal must have been struck sometime yesterday.

My guess is that VM made a final offer and said take it or leave it and LFC declined the offer. After taking a look at their Sky subscription figures they realised that they needed VM more than VM needed them and accepted the deal on the table.

As it appears that Sky were involved in the decision to make the channel a Sky exclusive, it looks like they have compromised and allowed the SD version onto VM.

I doubt that the HD variant will arrive for a very long time, if at all. Still, Sky actually compromising is unheard of :D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

We know that some Sky channels are coming out in January. Some speculation about how many - only two are absolutely confirmed.

Apart from that, take a look at Media Boy's recent update.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

7 quid for a channel! unless they've got a LOT more content on there its nowhere near that amount.

silly boys

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Is there really?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Really?!? Prey tell what speculation there is.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Agree it`s far too much for 1 channel. Shot themselves in the foot in my opinion.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

It's aimed at enthusiasts who are not very price sensitive. They wouldn't get many more subscriptions if they charged a fiver. Saying that, the web version is a fiver.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

I told my friend about it who is an avid Liverpool fan and he laughed at that. Said maybe two or three quid he may have done.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

l am a devoted Liverpool fan but l have no intention of paying the £7 that's for sure.:nono:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

are you den??? i've known you for many years now on here and didnt know this! well straight fromn the horses mouth! not worth it the customers say!

i think eventually football rights will be purchased individually by each club. i see this being about 20 years or so to be honest but it'll happen one day.

10-15 quid a month to see all your clubs games would be a nice price. but as a more neutral fan (newcastle at heart) but i enjoy seeing other teams play. For it to be sold on an individual team basis would make it very expensive for people like me to watch random games :(

I believe the christmas shut down has begun now and there wont be anymore channel launches or changes after all the radio changes??

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

boooooooooooooo you be crying sunday Vince ;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Was also told on Sunday that LFC TV & Sky will soon be advertising promotional prices to try to help with the dreadfully low number of subscribers on their platform.

There are "no current plans" to extend this to VM, but (in my view only) I think it will eventually take place on VM if not too many sign up on VM. I don't think they will if a much larger platform like Sky can't attract customers and that they will offer promotional pricing in the following month/s on VM too.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Manchester United and Chelsea charge £6pm so this looks like the figure Liverpool should be charging. Certainly not £2pm and certainly not £7pm. I suspect these two clubs will raise their prices next year to £7pm and Liverpool will stick to £7pm.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Why? I can't see many people choosing which to subscribe to based on price.

In other news, Nollywood Movies has launched on channel 835. It's a standalone subscription channel at £6.99.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

I've heard of Bollywood, but not Nollywood! Take it it's an asian thing.

Going back to LFC TV, it wouldn't surprise me if they started doing free weekends to entice potential subscribers. January will be a lean month when everybody has spent up and their credit cards bills start arriving.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Nollywood is Nigerian

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 09:21 ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 ----------

Reports coming in that Sky are now contacting customers offering them three months at half price for LFC TV.

Wonder how long it will take for this offer to reach VM. Those who said that they wouldn't pay £7 a month, would you subscribe for £3.50?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

I'll wait until they pay me £3.50

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

I think the nearest you're likely to get is a free weekend 😁

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

No one has claimed that. £6 seems to be the consensus for Premier League clubs which maximises revenue ie the best combination of price per month and number of subscribers. Having said that, two clubs (Chelsea and Man U) is not much to go on!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

£7 is a bit pricey for a TV channel whose football team "owners" haven't won anything for 9 years. Manchester City TV would reel in the readies for Virgin Media. Come On Manchester City TV!!! :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Watch this space is all i'm saying at the moment.

Media Boy EXCLUSIVE: Sky Sports News HQ HD Testing on Virgin Media.

An new Virgin Tester has told Media Boy HQ that both Sky News HD and Sky Sports News HQ HD are now testing on Virgin Media.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Right on track for January one imagines.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Good news and look likely that 1st jan launch will come true

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Media Boy HQ is going for any time in January from January 6th (Launch date not confirmed).

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Whenever they launch I will be very happy, if virgin are testing, then it can't be too long to wait :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Take this with pinch of salt but Jan 15th 2015 is the info i have.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4

UPDATE:

Here is the picture of Sky Sports News HQ HD and Sky News HD testing on Virgin Media.

My Virgin Tester also confirm that Tru TV is not testing on Virgin Media.

---------- Post added at 18:38 ---------- Previous post was at 18:24 ----------

But Media Boy HQ has seen picture of Local TV Channels Thats Solent and STV Edinburgh also testing.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

A while back I was told to expect Tru TV onto the platform, sounds like negotiations unexpectedly broke down without agreement. Doesn't look to be much good anyway.

IIRC it did get to the testing stage.

Great news!! :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4

You can't take a look with a V HD box, you need either a TV with a cable tuner, or an unauthorised cable box.

Also :xmas: to everyone from Cable Forum Team plus anyone who has followed the "Coming Soon threads" in 2014.

("Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1" will launch on December 29th).

...the connection of both, of course, is against Virgin Media Ts&Cs.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

If you're a VM customer then you will be breaking its terms and conditions. But if you're not a VM customer then you don't have a contract with the company so cannot be breaking its terms and conditions.

May I ask any Virgin Viewer from Southampton if they can see That's Solent on Virgin Channel 159?

Media Boy HQ knows it testing.

-France: EuroChannel

-Ukraine: Ukraine Today
-Russia: CTC

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

Let's hope that the changes that Virgin are making justify the price hike that is coming.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

just upgraded to TIVO due to negotiations with latest price "inceases", for me the worldbox has some legs and might be a nice USP

I would really prefer some quality english speaking channels if I am to be honest.

But there's only really one of those left that VM hasn't got. And that aint coming anytime soon.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
 

That's all well and good but many of the XL channels have gone into the lower tier packages so what are we getting to replace them? Maybe a few HD versions of the current SD channels like Universal would be a start.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4
