French Open in 4K and HDR

Virgin Media will broadcast Roland-Garros event in 4K with High Dynamic Range (HDR) again when Eurosport’s coverage of the tournament which runs from September 27th until October 11th.
Virgin will utilise Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) technology to broadcast all matches that feature on the Phillipe Chatrier court in 4K UHD with HDR on its V6 set top box.

Eurosport’s live 4K HDR coverage will be available on each day of the two-week long tournament on all matches that appear on Phillipe Chatrier court.

Sadly, there's still no official word when we will see the promised 4K Sky channels that were supposed to arrive in 2020. These were first announced in July 2019 but since then it's been radio silence from the company, which is extremely disappointing.

New firmware for V6 but still no working Radioline app

There's new firmware being rolled out to Virgin Media's V6 boxes. It's 20.10.1.RC21 and one of the things it is supposed to address is an issue with the sound on some BT Sports channels. There's a thread on the upgrade on the Virgin Media Community Boards.

However, it doesn't resolve the issue with the Radioline app, which has been offline since August. That's a known problem and Virgin say they're working on it. Bad timing though, as Radioline announced on Twitter last month that they've just signed a new deal with Virgin for the app to be on the V6 boxes.

Virgin Media Horizon thread

There's an interesting thread over on Cable Forum started by regular poster Ozsat. He has a Horizon main and mini box and is posting on his experiences. You can find the thread here: https://www.cableforum.uk/board/showthread.php?t=33709333
