Lost teletext on music channels by
Paul Hyett
Every week I seem to lose teletext on the Sky music channels, presumably
when they change the weekly selections - does anyone else have this
problem? (Grundig box)

No signal error by

Where did Sky quote you that price? They offer a call out for £65 all in.
Beware though you could end up with an older box!

cricket highlights by
Keith Christmas
there don't seem to be any highlights for the 1st Test out in the West
Indies
anyone got any clues why?
KC
and why can't Sky produce a nice handy 45 minute package like terrestrial

Bit Rate on Sky movies compared with DVD by
Nigel Barker
On Sat, 24 Aug 2019 10:46:21 +0100, Paws wrote:
Does anyone know how these 2 compare in quality ?
The DVD standard allows for up to nearly 10Mb/sec. An average DVD would be about
8Mb/sec. Sky broadcast 3-4Mb/sec.

simultaneously what...
