Virgin Media UK Preparing New TV 360 and STREAM Software Update
Customers of broadband ISP Virgin Media (O2) may like to know that the provider will shortly begin rolling out a new firmware update for their TV 360 and STREAM platforms (set-top-boxes), which is expected to introduce a number of new features (e.g. enhanced search functionality that will use image tiles instead of a text heavy display).
The planned development was first mentioned in a newsletter that was issued to some of the providers customers, although this wrongly gave the impression that the rollout had begun when in fact that is not the case. ISPreview understands that the deployment of their new OS software is instead due to begin within the coming weeks, but we don’t yet have a precise date.
Virgin Media has declined to provide any further details on the rollout and its features until it goes live, so expect another update in the near future once that happens.
