Re: Virgin Media Changelog

I can confirm that Performance has been removed. Leaves us exTW in the rubbish position now with regards to channels, I think that and UKHistory+1 are the only ones NTL were missing

Re: Virgin Media Changelog

FX is a free-to-air on Virgin to 'L' viewers until 11 August. CITV is now on at weekend until 12.30pm and not 6pm so that ITV4 can start at 12.30pm.

I can see that Telewest needs them channels, but ntl: dont need them, They are crap!

I think Virgin Radio will appear, but the rest can be removed from both platforms as far as I am concerned.

5 months after the rebrand from Telewest to VM and we still don't have the missing music channels Classic FM TV or Bliss, Scuzz & Flaunt.

VM were quick to remove Performance from the EPG after just over week after pulling the plug on the channel but i notice that Discovery Kids which ceased broadcasting way back in March is still listed on the EPG.

Is it off the EPG I keep getting this channel has ceased broadcasting as I go through the music channels a la Sky Sports etc.

Would be better if dead channels are taken out of cycles to speed up searches

Damn! I realise it may sound strange of me to be disappointed by blank channels being removed, but I actually found a use for 1. I don't watch anything live, & I find having that preview/picture-in-picture thing on screen annoying when I'm browsing around the various menus, so I've been leaving my box set to 1 of the blank channels [I was using 602]. I don't suppose anyone knows if there are any blank channels left?

Re: Virgin Media Changelog

Yea. Prem Plus is still there, but you could use channel 0 as well, which is the PPV channel.

The Sky Travel ones have been removed also.
