We want your Virgin TV 360 experience to be the best it can be. That means we’re always beavering away trying to create updates that make sense and will make your TV viewing even better.

Fear not! We’ve made some under-the-hood improvements that will make your TV viewing journey even more seamless. So much so, in fact, that you might not even notice them. So, here’s what we’ve been up to. Watch the video below and then read on to learn more.

Welcome to your Personal Home

There’s a fresh new way to kick off your Virgin TV 360 experience. Boo-yah. Your 360 box will now start up on the Home screen instead of the last channel you watched. It’s a small change that unlocks a whole new level of personalisation – putting everything you love to watch right at the heart of your TV.

It makes sense, right? Instead of putting you back on the channel you had on just before bed – probably either the news or a film you were only half-watching – we’re putting you straight into the thick of all your picks.

Where’s live TV now?

Press Home, Guide and Live TV from your remote.

No worries – it’s still just a button away.

  • Press Live TV on your remote to jump straight into what’s on now

  • Hit Guide to browse all live channels and plan your viewing

  • And to come back to the Home screen at any time, press Home

It’s all about speed and simplicity – just how you like it.
