I've put la vuelta highlights my watchlist today which is showing on quest HD, came ro watch it tonight and only the episodes from tnt sport are there, which I don't subscribe to.. Any reason why what I've added to my watchlist isn't there? So annoying, left sky to join virgin, and seems not what it's sold to be.. [Mod - title edited for clarity]

We probably posted at the same time.The programme is on Quest HD called "Vuelta a España" and you have to choose the 2016 episodes [and ignore the incorrect description and year]. It does need typing starting at the V, but you should find it without needing to get as far as the ñ! It is only available going forward - i.e. the live broadcast.

Going by the 360 EPG the highlights program, 'Vuelta a España' airs nightly at either 7pm or 8pm (mainly 7pm) on the Quest channel.I've just performed a search on my 360 using Vuelta a España. That does indeed show the highlight episodes from '2016' that aired on Quest and Quest+1 are available to view. The ones currently available aired between 23rd and 26th August.Stages 6 to 17 are listed going forward, so it looks like they will be available under '2016'. The ones that are currently indicated under 2025 using Search are only available on TNT.EDIT - I forgot to add, I've checked under TV Shows > Channels > Quest but no programs showing there, only under TNT channels :(

Hi again Richardr1 I have no interest in that sport so I never actually tried to view the episodes.I've checked further and sadly they can't be viewed, there is only the option to set future recordings from those links.The previously aired live races and highlights can be viewed when selecting TNT via TV Shows > Channels providing toy subscribe to TNT Sports. Aside from VM's listings being incorrect (again) as the episodes aren't from 2015, it looks to me like WBD aren't allowing any means of watching Quest streamed/on demand content unless you subscribe directly to Discovery+

Hi aptp66 👋 Welcome to the community forum! Thanks for posting. Sorry to hear about your experience trying to record and watch La Vuelta highlights! Looking at our programming information 👉 https://www.virginmedia.com/the-edit/sport/live-sport-on-tv-this-week it appears that the majority of La Vuelta is showing on TNT Sports - it's just the highlights that are on Quest. When you selected the content to record, did you do this via the Quest channel specifically? Or did you search it via the main menu and then select 'record series'? This will help us identify where the issue may be! If you didn't the first time, please try selecting the programme via the guide on the channel you'd like it to record on (Quest) - and let us know if the same issue happens again! Thanks for your patience whilst we try to get to the bottom of things. All the best. 🌞

I did try and put the highlights in my watchlist from the quest channel but only ones on tnt are showing in it. Would an option be to swap the stream box for the 360 box instead, so I can record instead of adding to watchlist?

    You face two problems:
    The Virgin EPG is not great, and far from the Sky EPG. It now has the highlights on Quest as highlights from the 2016 race! If you put that on your watchlist then you should get the forthcoming highlights, albeit you may lose it again if they change to the correct year [or some other random year].
    Quest is one of those channels where Virgin do not carry a lot of the programmes on catch-up, so you can't use that [I guess it is possible that they might if they get the EPG right, but I wouldn't hold your breath].

Well that's poor. I left sky to come to virgin, sky had a much better and easier interface, virgin in comparison is quite poorly set up. Not being able to watch shows you put into your watchlist is terrible..

WBD owns TNT Sports and Discovery+, and live events are all streamed by Discovery+ with some broadcast by TNT Sports. WBD also owns Quest and uses Quest to showcase its huge archive and to maintain Quest's niche sports highlights.
Anyone keen on live sports may well have to subscribe to TNT Sports.
