Awful picture quanlity on V+
When is the quanlity of the channels going to improve, as I speak I'm watching Sky Sports 1 & it looks like something what has been taken on a mobile phone!! (other channels are the same). Virgin must be aware of this as many people has mentioned it. I love the V+ & really want to stay with them, but if the quanlity doesn't improve soon I will have to reconsider as my 30 days are coming to a end. Has anyone had a clear answer from Virgin??

Re: Awful picture quanlity on V+
My V+ picture quality is great on all channels so problem must be specific to certain areas (I'm in Letchworth/Hertfordshire) or certain boxes (I have a week old black VM badged box - I know it was new because I watched the engineer unpack it).
Apart from a few VOD hiccups, I'm more than happy with my VIP 'upgrade' - V+ box/old STB in another room/Sky Sports (already had movies)/10Mb broadband (had 4Mb before), and costing me less per month than before!!

Same boat here - I have posted a few times about this. The quality is very, very bad. I love the V+ ,VOD, second box and the 10mb so there's no way I'm crawling back to Sky but there's no way I'm paying £85 a month for this quality of picture.
Engineer is coming out tomorrow but I still say it's not a problem with the box as other channels are OK.
(New black V+ Box. Ex NTL Manchester)

Re: Awful picture quanlity on V+
yep same here engineer out on tuesday yet again had one out this week for the same problem changed the box then but like you said there is no way a box issue as others are reporting theirs ok must be a regional issue.

Re: Awful picture quanlity on V+
Glad it's not just my eyes playing tricks then. Looks like it seems to be ex-NTL as ex Telewest are loving the quality.

Re: Awful picture quanlity on V+
i know one thing for sure is this isnt sorted asap i will be thinking of sky and thats not taking into account getting the basics back if i do.
i can live with the fact of not getting these on vm but bad picture quality i cannot live with.
