Watch your attitude Joshua. If you don't feel able to post without being rude, don't post at all.

Thanks Joshua.

I wonder when/if H2 HD will appear on VM?

I can't currently check as my equipment is faulty

As per MB, Arabic Hafla and BT Sport Extra 1 are both still testing off the EPG.

In addition, a new channel called "ClublandAkaChilledNow" has also appeared.

Yooplay TV closes today on VM.

Thanks, H2 is actually being replaced by Vice TV in the USA, it does seem odd that they are launching the HD variant of H2 on VM

Perhaps the UK will have both!

BT Sport Extra 1 isn't a test - it's already live - it's the existing red button stream on BT Sport 1/HD

I wonder if the ClublandAkaChilledNow stream is a red button app to access those music channels.

Not sure, to my knowledge it's the first time that a channel has been labelled with four channel names!

Apparently it's for 'Tivo customers only' so I thinks it's safe to assume it's a red button app.

At the moment it's still testing off the EPG, so you won't be able to see it yet.

My life is incomplete without seeing such classic shows as Pawn Stars and Storage Wars in high definition.

I shall hold my breath until I do!

I still wish there was a way for VM and Universal to collaborate, and allow us their HD channel. Shows like Sleepy Hollow and Rookie Blue, I tend to seek out online with streaming HD, as the SD Universal picture..ummm..is slightly wanting is all I'll say.

Oh come on guys - you can finagle an agreement surely

I should add that History HD seemingly isn't testing at the current time, for anyone hoping for that channel too.

Hmmm very odd. Why on earth would VM sign a contract for niche spin off channels like H2 HD and Lifetime HD but not the main channelHistory HD. As someone said, we can't blame Sky for locking it away under some exclusivity deal as even BT TV has it now! No Crime and Investigation HD either, which is on Sky and BT TV from the same network.

Oh VM, sigh.

History channel H2 seems to show more serious programming then History main channel HD which is full of Pawn Stars and Storage Hunters and very little else sometimes in fact most times.

Sky Sports HD and Sky Movies HD will close in January 2016 for V+ and TV Drive customers.

These customers will be offered a free upgrade to TiVo if they wish to continue receiving these channels.

Update: The Channel operator seems to be indicating that there are some problems and MB has said that the launch has been called off with no new date confirmed.

A new TiVo app Channel called Vevo is also said to be starting in mid December. This is a music Channel.

That sounds promising. I used to watch music videos in HD on TiVo's YouTube app via Vevo - until YouTube became totally unusable on TiVo.

There's a possibility that some UKTV SD channels will move down to M as they look set to be poised to go FTA.
