They've also used a tiny version of the 5STAR logo in the EPG. It should be same size as the 5STAR+1 logo so the 5 part is a consistent size with all their other channels. Some people will need a magnifying glass to see the current one 😂

Ever since we moved to Tivo-based from the previous gen boxes I’ve always switched off the logos at the first opportunity. The mix of typeface styles alone makes reading the EPG unpleasant. Text based interfaces are almost always preferable to graphical ones when it comes to TV controls in my opinion.

Re: Virgin TV (2025)
I think they both are.
Actually the That's local tv schedule in the evening is good - but most already had it.

Indeed. I find some of the EPG idents illegible, especially on the 360. At least on the V6 you could replace them with text. As far as I am aware Sky don't use the logos on their EPG, they use lager text channel names instead which makes it a lot more precise and easier to follow.
Please VM follow suit or give us 360/ Stream viewers the option back to change.

There's a text-based version available by pressing 555 on the remote. Though it's primarily an accessible EPG, hence the large text size, and functions differently.

Re: Virgin TV (2025)
Today is the anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster and, as happens every year, LFC TV is free to view to mark the occasion.
