At least its a start to now be watching continuous films in HD, as apposed to the odd one on channel 4, and it has to be more popular than eurosport. At last i am now starting to get full use out of my cinema setup, especially when its broadcast in 5.1

I'm more looking forward to Eurosport HD, watching the tour de france in HD is great, seeing the scenery as the tour goes through france was fantastic when I watched it on sky.

and the croissants...even better :)

Well said !!!!

Just like to add well done VM on getting these and wonder what else is there to come ?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

Just come back from 3 days away from cable and the internet and I read this.
Great News, love the movies, so Film 4 HD will be a great addition.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

Can you keep me up-to-date and tell me when Virgin Media has removed your local BBC Radio Channels from their Channel numbers.

(Virgin will do this within the next week.)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

Yep, couldn't agree more - 2009 TdF looked great in HD on Sky. Eurosport is great for all things two-wheeled!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

Excellent news about the new HD channels, 2 great additions as far as I'm concerned. Very interesting news that Film4HD will be a VM Exclusive, I wonder if there will be more similar details to come? ITV HD is hopefully the next priority.

And two blades. :D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

Sure. Will keep you posted.

When they are removed, is this the first step to NGTV?
thus meaning the headend is due sometime soon?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

Yes.

When your Local Radio is removed within the next three months your Headend will join NGTV then about two month later you will get an new viewing card.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

I think they are moving a little quicker now MB. Possibly even down to a month. Derby DE22 started receiving cards last week. The boxes were only updated at the end of Jan. I'm livivng in Notts at the mo so will let you know when our cards arrive. Software was updated about 2 weeks after Derby

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

Okay I am not a big radio listener so if I am in London (I think the Acton headend) what should be my local radio station that I should be keeping a eye on to see if it has gone?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

Local Radio was only on Ex-Telewest Headends.

When you Headend has join NGTV you will see BBC Radio 4 LW (Channel 911) and BBC London 94.9 (Channel 937) broadcasting in you area.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

As I have stated in the past, there is almost no HD content on ITV HD

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
 

I have seen an rumour on the web site the hold up on ITV1 HD joining Virgin Media is at the ITV end.
