    I see the channel is launched today and it will have the football this season, does anyone have it on there Starview, if so what is the frequency please? If nobody has it yet, will we be able to scan it, as it's Free to Virgin XL Customers, no joy yet for me when I scanned earlier. Cheers, appreciate any help.

    Maybe you're talking about a different box, pressing the green button on the SV4 doesn't give you any options

    Green button works on Starview 2. I did a scan, but have picked up 2 ESPN channels instead of 4. One of them says EPSN will launch at 8pm tonight, and the other just says stay tuned sports fans a message from Virgin. Is anyone else getting this? Can't see EPSN America and not sure out of the channels i have which is HD/ESPN Classics...

    the green button on the SV2 was an error with the firmware, once clicked it started to scan. You wont get ESPN HD on a SV2, if its in the HD stream, a euro HD will pick it up. you will only get whats in the standard SD stream.

    The new ESPN Channel isn't available in Ireland yet. Negotiations between Irish providers and ESPN are still ongoing.

    My mate works for N*L Ireland and he was telling me that they have no plans to carry this station but this could change in the near future...

    No provider in Ireland is broadcasting the new ESPN channel currently so you won't pick it up, regardless of the box you have.
