ONrequest has finally become ITV Select, it's a much cleaner look, with new idents !!

Here are a few screen shots from ITV Select :

And yet another itv enterprise gets a nice clean on-screen image. Really, is it *that* hard to do the same for itv1? I mean, there's more to work with, a main national network, with regional identities which could be incorporated, and they're stuck with an ill-thought-out mess.

There's currently a global problem with the new software released yesterday. Everytime you press 'text', the box locks. Mine did. Did anyone manage to get any further?

So we have a cinema theme here. I don't know whether I like this new look or not - obviously the blue is a welcome break from the pink monstrosities we've had to put up with since May 2000! However I'll miss the 'Eye Candy' ONrequest idents - they were quite snazzy, albeit completely irrelevant to the channels!!

the actual idents are quite wierd. Forests, a man with a blue and yellow glowing circle, eyes, and the logo itself....

Also the trailers i do not like how th logo drops in and thos Horrible patterned things fly in...

The ITV Select Ch. 50 has been 'withdrawn'. If you go there now, you get a black screen with the preview in the corner. I can also reveal that VH1 is expected to be added to the channel line-up soon and there are updates expected within the next two weeks to change the now/next banners and other onD branding.

Channel 50 is there, I have it. I get the preview top right, and the text information. Have you updated your box properly ?

I'm not the only one. Loads of others said theirs has disapeered. ITV CS said they Ch. 50 had been 'withdrawn'. Hang on... It's back now Smile

Channel 50 seems to be working OK now, although I also had the crashing problems earlier (let's face it, crashing is not unusual with ONdigital) - ITV Digital are going to have another forced update so that ALL of the ONdigital branding will be removed m@? How do you know this - what source.

ITV Digital are taking their time. I would have thought the very top priority would be for the first update to remove all ONdigital branding - ONdigital stll exists on the select menu, the channel list (select) - the main menu - even when you go onto channels that you don't subscrive to it says this is not a part of your channel line-up contact ONdigital - madness!

They say on Ch 50 that the box will freeze for a couple of minutes when you first visit ITV Select, but it's fine after 5 mins
