It will fix your other issues though regardless of you using ondemand or not, it is your box not talking back to Virginmedia correctly.

No Return Path

A return path is a two-way connection (upstream from the stb and downstream from VM), VOD and interactive need this to work, otherwise it's just downstream data and broadcast.

In simple terms... the stb sends information to VM and VM send information to the stb.

Are you on L or XL tv? There are loads of kids stuff on VOD too, you are paying for it, so best get calling VM and get it fixed

I find your posts quite confusing. You ask why you are getting these prompts, you are told you have a fault, yet you won't fix it. Then you tell us you don't even watch TV!

You indicate that there are children in your house. Even if you don't watch On Demand (or indeed, TV) yourself, don't you think you should fix it for them?

Very strange.

No need to be rude to the OP... I'm not a fan of "txt spk", but I've learned to tolerate it.

The post was not meant to be rude,I find it both lazy and lacking respect for other people trying to read such posts,this is a forum and not a series of SMS texts between "mates" and should be treated as such if the Op requires serious help with issues in my opinion,if you still think I am being rude then so be it.
