As far as comparing VM's HD to Sky HD I'll compare what I like, who made you the HD police???

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

I'd edit the phone number off your last post frogstamper;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Did you read anywhere in my post directing it to YOU - ??????? No I thought so.

If you read the last 2/3 pages of posts you can see people trying to compare like for like services.

As you can see VM VIP customers still save compared to Sky - and for my prices stated - well it shows VM have not updated there website prices as it does not inclide the £1.50 XL TV increase and £0.50p extra box increase - hence my £2 differance - still cheaper than Sky.

It was a like for like comparison thats all.

If it was directed at you I would of quoted YOU.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Confirmed :)

Up and running here!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Just noticed that myself great news well done Virgin.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

3 pages of HD channels on the EPG. Good to see VM deliver on their promises

Hope channel5 show plenty of their movies in HD. Also prospect of HD European football later in the year.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

I have it too but no sound , also have fiver+1 and fiveusa+1 and test channeles 38 to 45 ,

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

No sound for me too but well done VM for sneaking this one in, up to 13 channels now with number 14 in a weeks time!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Getting some audio on 5 HD, background music etc
seems the main voice channel not operational.
though good to see it.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

Wow how nice of VM to just add a channel without fanfare, maybe a sign of things to come? I see that only two programmes are tagged as HD today Neighbours and Home and Away.

I have same issue with sound, can hear the background audio but not the main channel.

Edit:

Fiver +1 and Five USA +1 are also showing in the EPG.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 

How much more of a good thing is it to wake up and find a new HD channel, so unexpected, but well done VM. No main soundtrack for me yet either...

nice surprise indeed.
