There are no spare channels on freeview for the live feed any more and there won't be after switch over either. The greedy government is selling off a lot of the old UHF television band for a quick pound.

I had a similar problem with my sky box and all I had to do was turn it off and on again and it worked fine again. You could try that.

They could have replaced Film4+1 with a live feed. Film4+1 was only meant to be on Freeview temporarily anyway...

http://player26.narrowstep/tv

it says on virgin you cant get it for free, but you can watch it for a one off fee of £7, i think that means if you pay £7, you can watch live all summer, thats a good deal!

Can I ask if I'm the only person whose live feed on Vrigin+ doesn't work?
I've tried resetting, turning off and on and all that, yet all I get is the "just a moment" message.

It's quite upsetting ::cloud:

I thought it had disappered since Celebrity Big Brother - I recall trying to use the live feed/Red Button then and it didnt work, so i've not tried it since.
