I had an email from virgin 2 weeks ago telling me I need a 360 box as I have a v6 box.i can watch sky+ with my v6 box but if I want to choose games I need a 360 box.i requested a new box and i am still waiting by the way. I’ve got TIVO boxes which now means not only I don’t get the extra football I’m losing half the rugby league games I’ve been getting this season too. Between Sky and Virgin I’ve come to detest pay tv companies over the past 20 years !!!! Yeah, for them selling me Sky Sports HD channels they took away BT Sport (which was free anyway in my package). |

I've spent all day trying to speak to a human at virgin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! warning according to community forum if you upgrade from Tivo/V6 to 360 you lose your previous recordings and connectivity between your boxes!!! That's just how my old brain reads it. Thats how i read it, makes sense if its rebooting your existing box though. Then as you say, you lose multi room option too To be fair accessing recordings from the box down stairs and upstairs wasn't the easiest thing to do. |

BT has gone now mate I think, it's TNT now. |

'Other Tivo Boxes' 'Bedroom' 'Play' Even i could do that mate (but then i could also pirate xbox 360 games so i'm sort of ok with tech lol) |

It has yeah, but name change alone doesn't alter the fact that they give something and take something else away less you pay for it (even though it was given free in my original package). |

Not even checked mine yet but if it was in the original package mate that you were paying for I'd contact them and get it reinstated, it should remain the same for the contract length. |

looks like it can be viewed on Catchup instead of recording. be good if true.
Does Sky Sports have catch up?
From August, this will also include every single live Sky Sports+ stream and on demand catch-up content. As part of the Sky Sports+ launch, NOW members will also be able to pause and rewind live sports content for the first time.26 Jun 2024

It's quite a big thing isn't it - at least 24 Stoke league matches will be shown live and all Carabao Cup matches (so an additional one match 😉). The 3pm blackout remains but I suspect it's only a matter of time before that goes. As someone who can't get to the stadium it's proper exciting!

What number is it on with Virgin? 508 - but only if you have a V6 box if you want the red button options for the streaming you will need to call the team to get the software update to V360. |

Have anyone using an IPTV solution managed to find the “channels” in their list? I’m watching Sky Sports + now, but I’ve only found one channel called +.
