At the moment it's just a slate. When I initially found out about it I asked the guy who did the scan if he could take a look at the slate to see what it says. Unfortunately, it is encrypted.

It's a Hindi music channel, so I guess that's why it's in the international section as opposed to the music genre.

Perhaps VM have signed a new deal with Viacom.

I wonder why they put the V Festival on Ch 100? Maybe it's simply just for extra exposure as VM have sponsored it, or does it allow those in lower packs to view it??
Yeah I know it is a Hindi channel, it's exactly where I expected it to be. The "International section" is taken from a field in the EPG descriptor in the SDT.

I'm not sure if this would be a deal with Viacom or with Viacom 18, I just know I would prefer to have MTV Classic added.

Channel 100 is available to all viewers so yes, it does give extra exposure to the V Festival and to MTV Live.
