Virgin1 on LCN20 are currently (0825 GMT) showing an MHEG screen saying 'Back at 9.00am'. A scheduled recording overnight on Virgin1 failed.

Have they officially stopped being 24/7 on LCN20, or did something fall over?

Virgin 1 now share capacity with TeaseMeTV -(TMTV) which runs 3am-9am and launched on CH98 on Oct 20th

Virgin 1's much-hailed 24 hour status on Freeview - which started around May 20th - is already over.

However, the Virgin 1 website still inaccurately claims 24/7 broadcasting on Freeview ... http://www.virgin1.co.uk/

No rescan is necessary to receive VIVA which is now running a barker until 4pm when it launches. If your receiver does not automatically change the service name then you will need to delete TMF and rescan.

The EPG now contains VIVA programming information. Alexandra Burke will launch the station at 4pm.

It's a video caption, not an MHEG caption (at least it is on Crystal Palace).

302 & 305 LCNs removed today
Community Channel is available and on downtime (9am to 6am) is video caption rather than MHEG.
In England & Wales: channel 27 has been removed, the MHEG message to show to receive ITV2+1 on channel 33.
I'm unsure whether the blank channel of Five on Mux A has been removed today?

Yes, FIVE Mux A re-tune caption has been removed. Also the S4C re-tune caption gone from Mux A in Wales.

Virgin1+1 EPG says the channels hours are now 6pm to 1am and 4am to 6am - but there are definately NOT on from 4am to 6am.

Freeview website etc. still says 6pm to 6am.

Can anybody confirm their real hours?

I think it is 6pm to 1am.

Correct. Virgin1+1 is on from 6pm to 1am thus bringing 5pm-midnight Virgin1 programming to Freeview mainly for Welsh viewers, who otherwise would only get Virgin1 from 6am-7pm. I'm surprised that they have not sold off the 6pm to 8pm hours!

Virgin1+1 sold off their overnight hours to Game Network BV for a Babestation channel.

When I emailed Virgin Media about this and other errors, I got back a load of irrelevant babble just like DS posts!

I suspect many at Virgin Media have no idea what Freeview is or know that they have a channel on terrestrial TV (or what terrestrial means)!
