Okay. However, it is actually an existing channel which is simply being made available to everyone for free for a while. So not a new channel in that respect either then.
So how was your posting it any more relevant? |

As per MB two more channels have started testing on Virgin Media.
They are: - NDTV Spice (I'm assuming that this is a food channel). - NDTV India. This is a news channel and will be (at least initially) a VM exclusive. - There are rumours that a NASA App may be added to TiVo. |

And yet still no UniversalHD

It looks like Hum Masala won't be appearing after all as it's no longer testing.
That's Solent is also testing for those in the relevant area. Two music channels are to be replaced on all platforms: - Smash Hits and The Box will close. - Box Hits & Box Upfront will start and be joined by a "bespoke social-first digital channel" called BeBox. It is said that this is to meet the "changing dynamic of youth media consumption". |

It'll be interesting to see what impact the Box rebrands will have on ratings. Smash Hits and Heat are easily the weakest brands and generic music channels that blend into a crowded market. |

According to S4C themselves, only their Euro 2016 matches will be available Le in HD on Virginia Media. Sky and Free sat will get the full service. What a random arrangement - how on earth did S4C and Virgin arrive at that?!

1/ come with the original software so will basically be an over-sized door-stop or 2/ have the AltEPG software installed about which I know absolutely nothing. (See also here.) Good luck and do let me know how you get on

New Channels
Anyone know anything about the two new channels appearing on Virgin's website
under the Sport section - Formula E and Coppa90? http://store.virginmedia.com/discove...tch/intro.html Are they On Demand channels or Linear channels? If they are Linear channels please could you tell me the channel numbers, as they do not appear on Virgin's PDF document Thank You |

Rumour that Spike may join VM in November, with TruTV testing off the EPG, it looks like VM may finally be bringing the missing Freeview channels to their platform.

Coppa 90 is on demand. Formula E was a pop up channel for one race weekend, but it may have an on demand presence too.
