Virgin Media: Streaming Issues

[James Martin]

Does anyone else here have Virgin?

It seems to be a lottery as to whether the 6am drop makes it onto Virgin Media.

(Unlike the BBC, ITV and Channel 4, 5 Streaming is still run via Virgin's own ecosystem rather than putting you into the broadcaster's own app.)

I normally go in late afternoon and often it'll just have it as being on 5 Star at 6:30pm, if they've uploaded it it'll say "Available Now" with the normal 5 logo.

It's very annoying as the Virgin system has skippable ads!

Afraid not, I'm a loyal 5 stream app viewer and I must say it's been incredibly reliable for the 6am drop. I didn't expect 5 to be this good I have got into a nice little routine before work with it.
