I believe the tuner on the left of the picture hasn't been activated.

Typical VM - where's the built in pop-tart toaster?

Yes, but even then you can only toast three different flavours in it. The others are all exclusive to Sky.

Re: Virgin Media working on a TiVo with 4 tuners
Any HD pop-tarts?
Or pop-tarts+1 functionality, with the red-button option?

Re: Virgin Media working on a TiVo with 4 tuners
Given the time-stamp on these posts, I'm thinking the content of the posts and the time they were posted are inter-connected (by a certain type of liquid).
I'm betting some people have got sore heads this morning
