I post Freeview stuff due to some people having Freeview for the other room when they are on Virgin Media.

Hi Media Boy - Just had a quick peak and it seems just the thing. This should keep me busy. Many thanks.

The channels are all listed on your electronic programme guide. I don't really understand the problem.

Hi Old Boy - If you look back a few entries you will find that Media Boy posted just the site I seemed to need - here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...s_on_Virgin_TV
But thanks....

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
There is a list printed in the electronic version of Virgin Media magazine 'Electric!'. Granted that isn't exactly right as there are a few channels with the wrong EPG numbers (i.e. Hallmark+1 being on 191). But on the whole it's correct...

Not much happening on the VM network, as usual, but it seems the people at Sky will get yet another new channel, Discovery ID.

One change is that the inauguration is also going to be on BBC HD apparently. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bbcintern...on_bbc_hd.html

Usually with VM when they announce something it some online very soon or that day so hopefully we shouldn't have too long to wait for ITV Catch Up

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
i agree mobes, bbc is pretty much only doing murray matches, eurosport is poor quality and 4:3 Why are they still using 4:3 anyway, if they are shooting in hd why not just convert that into Widescreen PDTV??

Exactly... there is NO excuse for British Eurosport not to be transmitted in 16:9 in SD... pathetic! (This may not be Virgins fault i guess if the only get the stream but...)
