On Demand Variance
 
Is this list of the BBC HD content supposed to be showing on demand?

* Bleak House (Complete Series)
* Great Natural Wonder Of The World
* Hotel Heliconia
* Judge John Deed (Series2 Ep 1-4)
* Last NightOf The Proms 2003 (Ep 1 & 2)
* Polar Bears On Thin Ice
* Pyramid
* Space (Ep 1 - 3)
* Supervolcano (Ep 1 & 2)
* The Magic Flute (Parts 1 & 2)
* The Planets (Ep 1 - 8)
* Walking With Beasts (Ep 1 - 6)
* Weird Nature (Ep 1 - 6)
* Wild Weather Cold
* Wild Weather Heat
* Wild Weather Wet
* Wild Weather Wind

I am not able to see a quarter of this content on my box? Also I do not see a few of the films in HD that are listed on the filmflex movies web site. Is this just an area issue or a problem with my box?

I've not got

Hotel Heliconia
Deed
Proms
Polar Bears
Pyramid
Space
Supervolcano
Weird Nature

I have the rest (I assume 'The Planets' refers to the Blue Planet series, which I do have). I also have 5 HD movies available.

Yeah, those are exactly the ones I don't have either. Is there a difference maybe between ex Telewest and ex NTL, as I notice we are both exNTL?

Nope, don't have either of them.

Virgin should try to get this content across the board with all this Sky stuff going on!

I'd noticed that the HD Filmflex Movies folder finally had more than 3 films in it. It looks like they're actually working hard to harmonise the platforms, but they're still having some issues. If you look in the More On Demand -> 4OD and look for the 'old' paid for episodes of Lost, you'll see there's a double entry for every one.

I'm being patient with them.

Same as me - Dont have Lost or CSI - Even though Im sure I have seen CSI advertised on Virgin Central

(I am in the Essex area)

They are advertising Spooks on Virgin Central also, but it is not there.

I have been told that we should all get the same content but the delay is due to Virgin having to increase the capacity on all the local VOD servers and then of course copy over all the content - which takes time.

Looking at Virgin Central content last night I noticed it has gone onto two pages now - so it is happening :)

JethroUK 07-03-2007 16:55

Re: On Demand Variance
 
We have 3 series of Spooks on VOD

Re: On Demand Variance
 
Are there any Virgin techs that know when ex-ntl will have the full VOD content?
