Can anyone with Sky help?

Thought sky did the hd channel swap

[QUOTE=ocav;35640583]Well thats his theory blown out of the water.



So you work in retentions but also at the 'Multiplex Uploaders'. Also i'd watch because Media Boy is a customer of Virgin Media so lets hope your boss doesn't find out.

Your theory of retentions' intranet called 'Red' has been thrown out the water, but even if it did exist it hasn't exactly been accurate as nothing you have ever posted has come true.



Has the HD version launched on Sky? I haven't seen anything about it![/QUOTE]

Only kidding you'll love it , it's a great peice of kit , even though i have Sky i've still kept the TiVo from VM although on the starter pack but it's leaps and bounds ahead of sky+hd box.

Looks quite good so far but i'm only viewing it on a 720p 32inch tv but i'm sitting pretty close and it looks decent.
Probably wont know true picture quality until the channel launches properly later on , if i get chance i'll have a quick peek and will report back if someelse hasn't beaten me to it lol. But this is screenshot.
Someone might get a better shot as my camera is pants lol.

Going to check lifetime hd pq when get home,don't worry it is coming to vm (hd) I contacted lifetime owners and they clearly stated to me that it was planned to launch In the future(I suspect it will be a 3-6months delay)

[vincerooney]

This has been the most exciting day on the cable forum for sometime.... my job is boring and tedious so its excellent when the forum is alive and kicking to keep me entertained haha.

now all we need is some exciting channel launches of MD's insiders for tomorrow! oh and the tivo update in liverpool please!

[muppetman11]

PQ seems decent , nice to see there also using the green 'remind me' function on all the trailers allowing you to series link straight from the promo loop , I would expect the content to be part of Sky catch up also at some stage.

Can confirm that too as my source has also said it's defo coming to VM in the near future.

I see it's all kicked off again with the CF rumour clique and the DS posters!
Though while this Asian Channel guys earlier posts are probably full of holes, some of what he said is spot on about the way information is posted on here and the way people lap it up... though if what he has posted is true then he should not be posting about a VM customer if he does indeed work for VM.

Though I will probably get flamed also for this, but this style of posting from MB such 'Media Boy Exclusive' stuff and 'Media Boy Reports', doesn't do anyone any favours and in my opinion makes it look attention seeking and as if someone has too much time on their hands, (though obviously when not constantly on the phone to retentions )

A lot of stuff posted is very obviously duff info which for whatever reason, but it still makes it to MB and he 'reports' it in his style now either claiming it is from insiders, rumour posters, virgin viewers... why can't it just be passed on and posted in how it was received... it's not major international news headlines were reading on here, so no need for all the hype and fanfare to appease the gullible.

There is more and more crap coming out than genuine news this last couple of months with conflicting information which has been posted on here, rogue insiders, contradictions and blatant rubbish.. it's turning it into a fantasyland thread.

No doubt will get the usual, if you don't like it don't read it retorts, but I tend to read this thread (more of skim it these days depending on the posts/poster) and pick out the wheat from the chaff.. which is getting harder by the week on this thread but there is some genuine good information being passed on to discuss by genuine people.. so I'll continue to read/post thanks.
