BBC Red Button and Virgin Media

[zetec]

I have a VM TiVo box, I want to watch the snooker, it has finished on BBC2 or the BBC HD Channel, however apparantly I can continue watching by using the Red Button. I press the Red Button and select BBC Sport, all I get is options to view selected clips of the last Grand Prix coverage. There is no option to watch the live snooker?

Yes I can watch online but I would rather watch on the TV. Red Button content was availiable on my old Virgin HD box.

Anyone know how to access Red Button content?

They've yet to implement it on Tivo I think. it is annoying after how seamlessly it worked on the old boxes.

As above, it's not available yet on TiVo. However, if you have a freeview tuner in/attached to your TV, don't forget you can switch to that and get the red button that way, that's how we do it at the moment.

Many thanks, I agree it is annoying.

Oh well I have no freeview as the TV is only set up to receive a VM signal, no aerial reception.
