Default PPV's

Hey guys,

After looking around the forums, for a setup ive had for a little while now (i rarely change anything to my setup)

I am a semi-TOS/Law Abiding Citizen asin, I am a paying customer of Virgin, and I pay for all my channels.

But since i watch all my stuff over the PC, using VMC + Extenders, If i bought a PPV Channel 0 (as it would be on the STB) is set at one frequency, is there another way I can find out the frequency if I buy the PPV before the event started, Would I have to rescan for new channels, and hope to find an irregularity thats not been scanned before, or do all the PPVs broadcast on the same frequency every time

Thanks in Advance,
Oxyg3n

PPV channels are always there, but they are not called anything specific, so you just have to check out all the channels when you know it is broadcasting, it may be different on other boxes (I'm on P.C)

So using VMC i just look for a new channel that dosnt have a name attached to it, or use some other viewer (progdvb etc etc) to find the frequency, and do it like that?

using any pc software then just look at all channels with no name/data attached to them and you should find it, like a live sports event maybe!!
