I had similar issues when I subscribed to Now TV. Never had a problem watching any VOD shows but always had issues with buffering the odd time I tried to watch anything live, especially the sports.

Still think they'll struggle with subscriber numbers as they've got their pricing structure wrong even though they seem to be slowly coming round to this with the new prices.

That answers it then , I never use the live channels they're awful quality compared with On Demand and seem pointless if I'm honest (sports being the exception).

I always stick to the On Demand content however I must admit I've not had issues using On Demand.

Yeah the VOD stuff works well MM. Be interesting to see how they develop Now TV as they need to establish a price point to try and encourage customer uptake and compete with Netflix, Amazon, etc, whilst not devaluing their Sky TV packages.

You can watch Sky Sports 5 online right now, if you want to see what is behind the placeholder image on Virgin Media.

The UEFA Super Cup Final looks like the opening showpiece for SS5 HD at 6pm

Should be a good game.

It`s also being shown live on ITV 4 HD!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

l would rather have Sky Sports coverage as ITV are a bunch of amateurs.

If you have a couple of hours, I would thoroughly recommend this for a read on the history of tv football. It does talk about the amateur ITV coverage over the years!

wish we could get ssnhq hd sooner just been watching downstair on 42 inch tv and picture quality was breaking up :(

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Picture break-up would not be an SD over HD issue - but a signal issue

Check your connections are tight mate (not too tight lol) i once had exact same issue, i tightened up the connection a bit and never had the same issue again.
