Sky Sports+ Issue

Hi.  When I go to the Sky Sports+ Channel (508) - I only see one televised game on offer. I don't get the option to choose from a the selection of other matches that are available to watch. Very frustrating. I had one call with Virgin Media Customer Services but with no resolution. I was away at the time so am building up enthusiasm to try again. In the meantime has anyone else has the same issue and f so - even more hopeful - a way to resolve?

Hi @pw100 

Only the TV360 and Stream boxes have access to all the red button streams. 

If you watch on a TiVo® or V6 box (powered by TiVo) box, you can watchthe additional streams on the Sky Sports app or upgrade your package

See the pinned post at the top of this forum

The old SSF background app may still work on the older TiVO boxes. Go to Sky Sports Football (503/513) when the additional matches are scheduled. Press the Red Button. When the splash screen disappears, press the "Info" button. A pop-up box should appear at the bottom of the screen, which you an scroll down to select a match. The old app can support up to 5 streams, which will include any already showing on the main Sky Sports Football & Sky Sports + channels.
