As a matter of interest MB, which V+ box do you have?

According to Wikipedia, the Scientific-Atlanta V+ box has four tuners (3 video, 1 data) but it doesn't specify what the Samsung V+ box has. There seems to be confusion as to whether the Sky+ boxes have two or three tuners but I guess they have three (2 video, 1 data). I presume that the data tuner is used for downloading the EPG and software updates. Broadband, where applicable, is most likely handled by seperate cable modem circuitry (which, in reality, has a tuner in it too).

I have not got one of the new boxes that are just out in the last year.

Sky + has got two tuners.
But you can only watch ''Live TV'' when you are taping an other channel but if you are taping two channels you cant use ''Live TV''.

If you all keep asking like that, you'll end up with Eurosport HD On Demand - "Yesterday's Sports, Today!". Not exactly what you wan't.

Virgin Media TV looks to broaden Bravo's appeal

I have just seen this over on media week and have wondered if this will be the next HD channel in the vmtv channels ?

faisalabadi · 20-10-2009, 13:16

vm are very slow in introducing new channels]

devilincarnate · 20-10-2009, 13:21

Yes that is why it says 2010 ! As they said that if they had the money they would have done it when they did virgin 1 .

faisalabadi · 20-10-2009, 13:27

that is the sole reason why sky has more customers

Sharpy55 · 20-10-2009, 13:38

And here's me hoping that there might be more HD channels for Christmas! Maybe Christmas 2010!!

faisalabadi · 20-10-2009, 14:57

It would be the sensible thing to do, Living has moved away from being targeted solely at female viewers and that has made it a much better channel, it would be hard to change Bravo without changing the core channel. Wasn't Bravo that channel that shows went to die on? They don't tend to show much old shows anymore. I hope it is not more reality crap and softcore porn.

Is there any none hd channels starting on virgin any time soon?

Arthurgray50@blu · 20-10-2009, 16:49

I heard a little rumour that towards the end of this month or next month a well known company is bringing out five new channels to air in the UK from the firm called 'ZONE' does anyone know if this is true.
