The arrival of BBC Alba in HD doesn't surprise me, it was the only BBC channel left to move to HD on VM outside the Audio Description channels, which are, incidentally, redundant now for all the main PSB channels as AD is available on all the main services on 101-105, 141, 161 (and in HD) with a change in menu/settings.

I wonder which bright spark at Virgin thought it'd be a good idea to remove BBC1 AD & BBC2 AD for sight impaired people with no notice whatsoever.
Blind people will have been wondering why their channels were silent and their recordings inaccessible until this was corrected. |

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2022)
BBC1 & BBC2 AD channels on 851 & 852 have now been removed from the network, as has the Metadata that supports any recordings.
Not that significant really, but will disappoint those wanting to minimise recording space by recording in SD. |

The AD channels were the last BBC SD channels that I was able to use to record from to save disc space. I've now had to delete some things that I wanted to watch and the box itself has deleted some things too.
I was not happy at all about this, so called Virgin to cancel. They gave me a further £25 off my bill (what the sly so and so's didn't mention was that they would remove the credit awarded to cover the price increase that I refused to pay). Still, i'm basically getting Full House TV, phone & BB for the price of BB only, so we'll see how it goes. |

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2022)
Re: Disney+ I wonder if Sky still has exclusivity for traditional broadcast TV set top boxes?
Stream might be able to circumvent that because its a streaming service. I can't think of another reason to exclude millions of your customers, given Stream and 360 both use the same Horizon platform. |

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2022)
To have a box at capacity would imply a lot of saving programmes over a long time. TiVo is primarily a time shift device... Not a long term storage device. If you had to get a box swapped out you'd hardly expect compensation for loss of recordings
