An Virgin Media viewer has told me that Virgin are testing 6 new channels on they box.

They are called VMTest1, VMTest2, VMTest4, VMTest5, VMTest6 and VMTest7. And are showing ESPN America, Liverpool FC TV, Racing UK, Flim4, Film4 +1 and E4.

On Ex-ntl boxes.
It's getting interesting.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)

It cant be a co-incidence that they've talked of 6 HD channels and 6 are testing

It would be just like VM to say HD are a few months away and then say

SUPRISE - we got them early 4 u.... aren't we great!!!!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)

well i'm not getting too excited as they aren't HD channels they are testing like putting BBC HD on six channels to test bandwidth etc. Until more HD channels are on my box i'm still sceptical

"Early" you say?
I make it getting on for two months late, considering more hd channels was promised by the end of March.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)

I would honestly say, that VM will get HD channels, and that is when Spurs next play in Europe.

We have been told this by VM, for the past six months, they always say, we will launch shortly, and it is alright people saying that l am moaning about this, but everyone on this forum is saying the same thing - WHEN.
