Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2

The ONLY channel I`m wanting is Sky Atlantic,not because it`s a brilliant channel in any way but just for the odd program on there I like. One day soon perhaps?

Would an EPG shuffle keep them hidden if already hidden?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2

HD swap would make sense. As even when connected with scart, the Tivo still shows the downscaled version of the channel.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2

That would free up some space and maybe make easier for the sport channels to move to 501

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2

On the TiVo you can hide them permanently under parental controls in the help and settings menu. I've no real problem with them but have young children and am happy that there is the option. I wasn't able to hide them on the v+ so it's a step in the right direction. I'm not sure putting them closer to the kids channels is the way to go, though.

You could remove them from the EPG and lock them from viewing on the V boxes. However I think there was a bug where you still the EPG title when doing channel up / down

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2

Would Virgin be able to do something along the lines of SD channels on 100-999 with the HD channels taking the same number but with 1000? So BBC1 HD 1101? and ITV HD would be 1103 and so on? That way it would be easy for you to know if the channel has an HD variant.
