Probably because the VM TiVo has an extra tuner so it has to work slightly differently. Also part of it will have been to make it fit with the miniguide (which TiVo doesn't have)

The iPhone App (and I suspect the Android one too) also has larger channel logos thank god! Still nowhere near as good as .......... (can't say)

My guess is because somebody with actual taste was involved in the VM restyle!

Hiya,
Just use the info button which will then allow you to swap between any of the 3 tuners at will, whilst still holding the buffers on the non being watched ones.
Thanks for the new HD channels and one price for all boxes.

They are spending thousands and thousands of pounds upgrading the tv system so we will get a lot more HD channels.

It's about future proofing the network, so not for more channels now, but in the future yes.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.
Could More4 HD and Film4 HD be launching on Sky soon ?
http://en.ses.com/4233325/news/2011/8181203
Channel 4 has already said they want to launch More4 HD this year http://www.channel4.com/media/docume...veryFormat.pdf
I think virgin media would get More4 HD at launch because Virgin Media have Channel 4 HD, E4 HD and got Film4 HD at launch and has been exclusive to Virgin Media for 15 months

I thought this was the Coming Soon to Virgin TV thread 
It does look like more 4HD channels might launch on SKY or possibly Freesat.
