Sky + connection to a PC using S-VIDEO by
Cartman
I've got a video capture card in my PC and want to capture the video output
off my Sky+ box onto hard disk (with a view to burning to cd or dvd) So i
have a scart to s-video converter but all i get is a mono picture.. If i
connect the s-video lead to my dvd players s-video out, the picture is fine.
I've tried another scart to s-video converter but get the same. Is there
something i'm missing here...

How much will Sky charge for a viewing card???? by
Ed
If I am correct then an old Sky card will still work and give you the
FTV channels. The problem with that is that the cheapest you are going
to get one of those at the moment is to subscribe to Sky for a year,
which is hardly a cheap option!
There was talk though a bit ago of Sky issueing cards where for a one
off payment you could get a Freeview type...

Ability to control digibox in the lounge from the bedroom by
Hughsie
Hi
An engineer has recently been round to fix the low band channels (bbc,
itv etc.) which were not working. As a bonus he also connected the Sky
up to the bedroom so I can watch it in bed :-)
Does anyone have any recommendations for gadgets that will allow me to
control the digibox in the lounge from the bedroom.
Cheers

All PSB now FTV by
Carl
Removing my V2 Sky viewing card brings up the blue screen on all 5 PSB
channels (BBC1 thru Five). So it looks like BBC1 and BBC2 will be totally
free, but the others will require a working card to be present and correct.

A dark day for all those who bought boxes to view FTV TV on,
bye bye five.
Yes, I do remember just a year ago some strange people here deriding my
decision to get a DVTA instead of a FTV Satellite setup.

We called the BBC Free to Air line, and they confirmed that the cards
will become redundant mid July - so no use ordering a new one.
This just isn't true.
It's partially true, when the BBC go free to air you won't need a card to

What good is a spare digi box? by
Paul Turner
Hi - I am new to all this so please bear with me!
I have recently had sky digital installed in my lounge with the
movies/sport package. However someone I know is selling a sky digibox
and I wondered what good it would be if I put in my bedroom and
connected it to the dish? It doesn't have a card...
- Is it easy to split the cable from the dish so it goes to both
boxes?
- Will the box work at...

Modem broken or not? by
P.P.Hughes
Hi all,
I have a Panasonic box and recently tried to access my Sky Statement on

connect, I got either an error saying that there was a problem with my
phone line, or that I could not be connected and to telephone Sky on their
helpline number and quote error code 111.
I tried accessing a few other on-line services such as HSBC...

Replacement for expired Sky subscription card by
J KScot
I cancelled my Sky subscription in July of last year and have continued to
use the Sky card for the FTV channels. This morning, I received a new Sky
card, without asking.
This is in direct contradiction of their letter to me earlier this year in
which they stated that I would no longer be able to receive the FTV channels
unless I either re-subscribed or obtained a card from another...

How long had it been since you used the card - it may have missed the
activation signal. Leave it for an hour or so, and it should spring back

life. Have the same prob with a BBC Scotland FTV card (Which will be
