Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2017)

According to that fact about Sky One going Ultra HD that’s incorrect because at moment only doing shows in UHD because I work in call centre for Sky we not been told this and long wait how not done either Sky Cinema nor Sky Sports yet in UHD channel format

Re: The rumour that AMC will be joining VM.

It has now started broadcasting earlier from 1pm, maybe this extension to broadcasting hours is a sign that it's to be added to other platforms??

From my recent use I'd agree however I do wonder why they dropped the ball with the looks of the box and the use of the same old dated UI.

TiVo have literally only just launched their new UI in the US. When the Virgin TV V6 launched there was no other TiVo UI to use.

It also means that there is a consistent UI for all TiVo boxes Virgin Media currently install.

You work in a call centre because you guys know what's coming. You didn't even know about skygo not working on chrome or firefox (not you personally btw).
So i'd trust call centre workers as much as i trust Theresa May which is zero.

I have no reason to doubt this source they're the same source that gave info about premier sports awhile back.

So next time you disagree with me, does that mean you are going to substantiate your disagreement with a link, or at least a reason, Den?

You know we'd love to get inside your head, but it is pretty impenetrable at times!

Do you know if this UI will migrate into our Tivos, Ben? Or are we destined to get the Horizon UI?

They will benefit from the extra reveue, as UHD will not come free of charge.

There is nice long queue for that so you might have to wait a while before its your turn.
