Default WSB Coverage - Virgin Media!!

I have been watching the coverage this morning and the screen is freezing every 30 seconds or so making the viewing really frustrating, especially when some of it is technical - Only when the coverage is live, the adverts are fine and the recorded items are fine...

....anyone else having the same problems?

Virgin say that it must be the box (usual answer) but its one channel, only when live and the only time available to suit both of us is next Saturday, so no good

It's the same on Sky which suggests it's a problem with the live feed from the circuit. Nothing Virgin or Sky can do about that.

When I said that to Virgin via their call centre in Asia, she was adamant it was not the service provided by Virgin Media......talk about use idiot cards. Every live event on this channel is like this... argh!

That's what I said. If the problem lies with Eurosports broadcast equipment, Virgin have no control over it whatsoever. They only send you what the channel send them.

Channel hopping is part of the fun, might miss something if I didnt

I'll watch some of the repeats in the week, hopefully they cover the Craig Jones chat as I missed that
