Seems odd to put Alibi HD at 200.

There needs to be a major reorganisation of the 100 group as it is crowded and a mess in places and there are still potential channels to be added, especially HD ones.

It probably wont get mentioned for a while, Virgin didnt tell anyone for about 2 weeks when MTV HD & Nick HD launched. Ben is VM Staff, and it is probably the most reliable on the entire forum.

Maybe they are. They moved Good Food & Eden to SD/+1/HD, which is different to the way they do other 3 channel blocks. Having the HD version on the end (or far away) means that if they do merge SD & HD, the +1 is on the next number.

Just noticed how bad the L Pack is now;

Sky Livingit (Sky Entertainment and TalkTalk £5 Boost)
Gold +1 (Sky Ent)
Comedy Central (Sky Ent)
Comedy Central +1 (Sky Ent)
E! (Sky Ent)
DMAX (Sky Ent)
True Entertainment (Freeview & Freesat)

Also stuff on the XL pack like Fox that are on Sky Ent or TalkTalk £10 channels, they really should sort them out.

It is up to VM how to package channels not ape competitors. They probably will amend the packs further so let's see...

ozsat · 15-08-2013, 10:14

They are now there 547-550

OLD BOY · 15-08-2013, 20:40

Just for the record, the following channels appeared on Virgin Media this morning.

529 ESPN
530 ESPN HD
547 BT Sports 1
548 BT Sports 2
549 BT Sports 1 HD
550 BT Sports 2 HD

All channels are available at no extra charge on the XL pack.
