Digihome PVR 160 more problems by Jon Dennington[_2_]
Having updated the software on my Digihome PVR 160 and got all the channels, I find that I can't instant record now. Although I have rescanned and the channels are coming over well from the correct transmitter I get the message "Unable to record x: Signal too weak" Has anyone seen this before or is it a glitch of my OS upgrade, please TIA Vigman

Bedroom TV with good(ish) sound by Ian[_5_]
Looking for a basic 16" or 19" bedroom TV, LED, built-in FreeView. But it must have a reasonable sound quality -- the cheapies sound very tinny. Recommendation anyone? -- Ian

Rescan curios by Jim Lesurf[_2_]
A while ago at least one mux changed the data stream and this caused my old Nokia 221T box to cease being able to make sense of some stations. (I think the change was the code rate.) Out of curiousity, this morning I did a complete rescan to see if this would fix the problem. It did. But it has thrown up an odd result I've not previously encountered! As usual I did the rescan in two steps.

here's where your money goes by Bill Wright[_2_]
We are committed to pay a feed-in tariff of 45p/kWh for 25 years on this. But these particular photovoltaic panels shouldn't cost us too much, since they face slightly north of east! The roof pitch is quite shallow so they will never even properly face the low sun as it rises. The main pic was taken at 11.55am. The inset is from Multimap, and I assume straight up is north.

Successful manual Digihome OS update by Jon Dennington[_2_]
This might help people who bought Digihome and other badged Freeview hard disk PVR boxes based on the Vestel chipset which didn't update after the switchover (such as from Argos, Currys etc) My Digihome PVR 160 wouldn't scan for all new channels after the analogue switchover and I was going to dump it and get a new one. However, I have finally managed to up date it. The over air updates had been...

Ferguson F3230LVD "error unable to access digital services" by Geoff Pearson
A friend has a 2 year old F3230LVD TV which this week displayed the message: "error unable to access digital services" and now has no channels. We are past DSO so there is no analogue signal but when I retune, it searches only analogue (it is supposed to do that then continue to search digital). As the tuner passes across the UHF band there are the indications that it is seeing a signal...

Motionflow by Rob[_17_]
Wondering what people think of this? My brother's just bought a 40" Sony TV with Motionflow, cost about £1000 he says. At first, it looked stunning. We were watching Four Lions (SD DTV) and it looked completely different to my Panasonic LCD. Not sure about 'better' though. Rob

Santa on the roof. by Brian Gaff
I posted a similar post to this yesterday but its been eaten. Basically the drift was this. down my road is one of those families who, when this time of the year arrives straps illuminated santas, and stuff all over his house, including the roof. Luckily, these days other than the eyrie glow as I pass by, I cannot see the tribute to third world illumination, but it set me to wondering if,...

Ross SD kit for F1 next year / Panasonic Freesat HD TV by larkim
I've got a Panasonic Freesat HD TV, working fine. To supplement my BBC rations of F1 next year I've taken advantage of the B&Q £25 deal on the Ross dish / STB etc. I was wondering what the best way would be to switch between the two dishes when I get the second one installed:- - just use the STB provided by the B&Q kit - somehow merge the downleads from both dishes into one cable to feed into...

Who knows about USB plugs? by Norman Wells[_6_]
I seem to be buying a few bits of kit recently, like a Kindle and a Sony MP3 player, that come for charging purposes with a 240V mains plug having a detachable lead. The end that detaches from the plug is a standard male USB connector so that, if I want to, I can use it to connect the device directly to a computer rather than the mains. The question I have is whether these mains plugs are...

DSO options for the over 75s by root[_2_]
Visiting aged relatives (A-Rs) yesterday, I was shown a support booklet they'd got about DSO. For those over 75 (they qualify) there are a set of subsidised options. Top of the list is getting a Freeview box installed for £40. However, A-R's location is in a dip in the landscape and terrestrial TV coverage had never been good. All the houses in the area have high poles attached to their chimney...
