Re: Virgin TV (2026)

Unusually, received a text today about a software update repairing an issue:

Quote:
Please make sure your TV box stays connected to a wall socket with the switch turned on for the next 72 hours while we do a software update. This should fix some issues you may have been having with Sky Sports+. In the meantime, you can watch Sky Sports on the app or on skysports.com using your Virgin Media login details.

Re: Virgin TV (2026)

You can sign up for the NFL Game Pass on DAZN to watch every game including NFL RedZone, the Playoffs and Super Bowl LX. Both the TV 360 and Stream boxes have the DAZN app.

Re: Virgin TV (2026)

I turned my Stream box on and it said it had had an update. I didn't check before, but the Sky Sports+ service was offering three different courts on the tennis and three different holes on the golf coverage, working, so I assume this is fixed now.
