IIRC VIrgin made a hash of implementing how to deal with recordings from closed channels so they had to bodge a solution on, and that solution was effectively make the channels invisible for a few months,.

Don't have this problem on Sky because... Sky went their own separate way, and you can view recordings from closed channels for as long as you like (decryption on the fly I believe, if have an active subscription for that channel).

Indeed a quick search on the blue place and voila, caveat being this is from 2020 so not sure how accurate it is now:

Doesn't look like the Pluto TV channels are on the EPG, maybe that's not happening, or coming later.

MB on Twitter is saying it has been postponed for a month and this is on both Stream and TV360 and no new date has yet been announced.

The closure of BBC2 Scotland as part of the launch of BBC Scotland possibly the biggest casualty of this stupidity.

MB on Twitter… Sorry I mean “X” is reporting that his sources have said some FAST channels are launching on 360 boxes tomorrow.

[Steve in Pudsey]

They've launched in EPG slots 220-250

[WillPS]

Presumably you can't record them?

[Steve in Pudsey]

Correct. There doesn't seem to be an on demand option for the channels.
