Tories trying to be all things to all men ... by
Dave Plowman (News)
Nice to know recycling is alive and well. First heard that 'joke' 50 years
ago. And I doubt it was new then.

4od Problem playing by
Geoff Lane
I wanted to view a channel 4 program that I missed recently, first time
I have tried 4od and on three occasions it locked up after a few minutes.
Tried firefox and chrome, both locked up, one at around 2 minutes, one
at 7 minutes and trhe other somewhere in the middle.
Does this system buffer or are you just not able to view if the internet
connection is a wee bit flakey.

Bristol - Channel49 ? by
Graham C
Just had two identical problems in two days. We're going DSO very
soon and a couple of neighbours have added set-top boxes to additional
TVs in their homes. Both had problems with poor reception on BBC1 and
2. Checked and found that the autotune had found MUX1 on Ch.49
instead of Mendip's Ch.59. A manual tune solved the problem.
However a web browse has failed to find any Ch.49 MUX1...

Freesat spelling by
widgitt
Has anyone else seen the Freesat "BBC iplayer Training Guide"
The spelling and use of English is awful.
"There", "they're" and "their" are used at random and in one breath
they are talking about "your customers", "them" etc and the next they
are saying "you" and "your" as if they are addressing the customers
directly.
In one section they are telling sales people that they should...

Ivan
Does anyone know if formula one will be shown in HD this year, or will it be
as slow in coming as it was with widescreen?

turn over VHS by
Brian Gaff
Very strange flashy pictures, probably inverted with lots of pulses on the
audio.
I did this once on a Phillips N1700, to try to use tape which had been
creased down one edge. New recordings were not too bad but the tracking was
a bit here one minute gone the next.

horrible picture - are we missing something? by
Lee W
I don't have or want a TV myself, haven't for years. My parents
recently got rid of their big square JVC TV to make way for a 1080p
Hitachi TV, 350 quid. From as far back as the sofa, and given that
we're all
short-sighted, when I visit I think it looks fine. But I think
they're a dire product. My sister's Samsung cost a thousand quid and
the display is horrible. She has Sky, all the...

Why do my freeview boxes keep crashing?! by
ian field
Both my freeview boxes are supplied via an uninterruptible power supply with
built in surge supression, and the socket strip for mains distribution to
the TV/video stack also has supression.
The Digifusion PVR frequently locks up - unresponsive to the remote.
The Techwood dual-tuner PVR usually only crashes when set to record, If I
set it to record and then switch it to satandby it...

Save the BBC: stop the cuts! [Link] by
Graham.[_2_]
I received this "save the BBC" petition. link by email from a friend.
http://www.avaaz.org/en/save_the_bbc/97.php?CLICKTF
I am not aware of these proponents being in any way influential in the UK,
and no doubt they have their own political agenda, but I thought some may be interested here.

aerial for sale on ebay NV 536 96db Car TV Antenna (item no 120539720437)
which is quite expensive at £50+ anyone give me a clue if its worth the
money?

HDMI Splitter by
Dave Plowman (News)
HDMI switch/splitter bought from CPC. Has two switchable inputs to four
outputs. Sources are an HD Sky box and a Blu-Ray player. Works fine to one
HD TV but not to another - Sky works but not the Blu-Ray player.
But plug the 'other' TV direct to the Blu-Ray works just fine.
All combinations of leads and outputs etc tried.
