Full House or Maxit customers only can fast forward through the ads on ITVX though I could see that being extended to Channel 4

Whether they could get ITVX Premium (which includes BritBox and StudioCanal Presents) and Channel 4+ included I am not sure about.

All4 was recently rebranded as Channel 4.

Looks like STV+1 has finally made it to TV360 boxes on channel 303!

Do you know what's changed?

I can still see errors, like on the 360 versions having the news section titled 'UHD RU'. Sky Kids should be Sky Kids HD. Might be more!

Channel 295 is also still listed twice

I guess if someone gave gaming news to you'd pahpah it, give it a rest everytime someone posts possible news you pahpah it.
We know All4 was rebranded but some still say ALL4, some still say ITVplayer stop acting like a know it all it is getting tedious, thankyou.

Not a fan of the name though.

I think Main Event can go into the hat too.

As Sky Sports do use the channels you have listed for Darts in December, and NFL from October.

TimeLord2018 · 05-07-2023, 17:43

Sky Sports Main Event is the most viewed Sky Sports channel so I doubt it, they could always replace the 'Free' Sky Sports Mix with the subscription Sky Sports Tennis.

Yeah i agree with you on the name.

It was announced a few days ago that Sky Sports are doing a special for the US Open which starts next month. SkyQ and Sky Stream/Glass viewers will have access to every court in an interactive app. No news about VM.

1701-e · 05-07-2023, 18:34

It'll be like F1.... All the courts will be on the app for VM SS customers

Deffo not Main Event. It carries the best of the coverage from Open golf, Ashes thru to premier league in the summer.

The tennis thing will be temporary anyway

SonicMaster · 05-07-2023, 18:38

Now that they're in much more prominent positions on the VM EPG, the issue with 5USA, 5Star and 5Select still being in SD on V6 and 360 boxes is even more obvious.

Any there any plans to make these available in HD like 5Action is on these boxes, and like *I think* they may all be on Stream?

Inews reported Sky Sports Tennis coverage will be on dedicated channel from next year , I don't think it's temporary

Quote:

i understands Sky are also due to announce that they will replace Amazon as the UK broadcaster of the two professional tours in the coming months.

Sky Sports’s tennis coverage, which will be on a dedicated channel due to launch next year and feature multi-court coverage on streaming platforms, will be presented by Gigi Salmon, a regular tennis commentator and presenter on the BBC.
