Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. IV

[Twilight Zone]

Does it have a component output or just HDMI?

[BenMcr]

I'm guessing just HDMI - same as the Samsung V+ HD box and the V HD box

[KingFry]

what about the ability to stream recordings to TiVo boxes in other rooms - any news on that being included?

Do we know for sure how many programmes can be recorded at the same time? When the Tivo box was first announced I saw an article that suggested it could record three at the same time - though I cannot find said article now! More recently I have seen two programmes mentioned, the same as the current boxes which seems more likely.

It has HDMI and Scart I think.

Also it will have three tuners just like the V+ HD.

I believe so, not sure it will at launch though.

[Blackened]

Do you have any idea how the back-up to a PC will work?

[muppetman11]

Is it true most people wont see a TIVO box until March/April ?

[clummy_]

Which of the regions, judging on past launches, do you think will get TIVO first?

(since the mods love "Wildly guessing")

I don't see why it will be regional launch. Virgin now have a single TV headend so there is nothing to stop it being available everywhere at the same time (When the V+ HD launched there were three headends, so three slightly different boxes)

It's more likely that any restricted availablity (if that is what happens) will be down to services rather than geography

Ben do you think there will be enough boxes to match demand as I rememeber when Sky HD launched they had to delay peoples installs due to supply problems. Looking forward to getting one. Do you think there will be lucky people who get them installed before Christmas ?

[BenMcr]

Honestly, I haven't a clue to that.

There's a TiVo thread on page 2 of the V+ board.
