You seem to be struggling to understand what exactly was launched today.
If you look closely, you can see that space has been left at 506 and 516 for SS5+HD. SSN SD has been moved to 501 which leaves 517 for the HD variant WHEN it launches later on this summer. There may be a chance that Virgin could shift the channels down one and squeeze SSN SD onto 507 to match this up, but it's not completely necessary. |

100% of VM customers have Sky Sports News whilst 20% have the Sky Sports channels hence Sports' more prominent EPG slot.

If that is the case I don't see why they didn't use 500 it's an easier number to remember also

Maybe it is me but what difference does it make what number the channel is assigned to as long as you can get it. It's a simple press of the button on the remote and if you can't remember the number there's a handy EPG.

I preferred the old analogue system where you could assign your own EPG Numbers and put the channels in the order you want them, I don't understand why this isn't an option on modern STB's?

I know it was possible right at the beginning with Telewest Active Digital. But it all changed once the first big software update was released (the one which enabled red button) |

Not that it's a big secret, but Sky Sports 5 and HD are now testing on Virgin.

Wonder if it's a coincidence that in the days since the new channels were added my TV keeps going off suddenly. It's happened a few times
Programmes I've V+ have been cut in half because of the telly switching off at all hours. It suddenly went off this morning just after I switched it on. And of course all the radio programme information on the EPG has gone for the rest of the week. |

I think there's no price increase for Sky Sports if you've taken out the Season Ticket offer.
truTV will be available on VM channel 245 when it launches next month. |

The BBC radio channels, however, have their own red button guide which becomes available after tuning to the relevant channel. Quote:

Forget sports we need a better movies channels, or cheaper filmflex.
Also correct me if wrong, does any channel actually show any of the followin UK Sports Ice Hockey, Baseball/Softball, Hockey, volleyball. Babminton and youth sports tournaments (I know Eurosport show some but not seen these) |
