There is no delay to the end of linear TV. That future is yet to arrive.

Re: UHD on Virgin Media

I thought it was finally happening just after midnight

I did a search for a few Sky Cinema & Sky One titles that come up as UHD on the search and when clicking them it went blank.

Surely it due soon.

Re: UHD on Virgin Media

Yes, you can see the wheels are in motion, but it is certainly taking a while to introduce this. Maybe it’s being planned as a Christmas present!

Re: UHD on Virgin Media

And while Virgin customers wait for 4K, Sky are already working on 8K!

That's the point - the shows are described as UHD but they are currently presented in HD.

All part of the setting-up process.

Re: UHD on Virgin Media

Well now that it's November,they are cutting it fine to launch Sky UHD with the end of the year getting closer. It makes me wonder if the new lockdown will delay it even longer.
