What kind of coax is good for preserving the signal from the aerial to the freeview box? I'm still using the same stuff as fifteen years ago, which makes me think I could be doing better. Can anyone recommend anything? CT100 cable. Maplin do their own called FT100 at 99p per meter. It may...

If I cancel my Sky subscription, which I have had a few years, will I still be able to get the free to air channels? I have read some postings already - but am more confused now! :-) TIA -- Munch

Blanksky plus keeps shutting itself down ,any idea`s

The number of homes with access to digital service Freeview has passed the 2 million mark less than a year after the BBC backed replacement for ITV Digital was launched. More from Media Guardian.co.uk : http://media.guardian.co.uk/broadcast/story/0,7493,1050581,00.html -- aa

Just gave in and got a nebula. Problem is I only get BBC channels, its recieving from Sutton Coldfield at 55% Strenght and picture is pretty good. Thing is I live in stoke on trent so should be getting from Fenton or Winter hill but they dont provide all channels according to...

Some time ago I came across a site which showed you how to upgrade the sky+ hard drive, but I've forgotton the link. (if i added every link I found interesting to my Favourites it would have a zillion entries by now). So does anyone know the site?

Hi All, I've just bought a Panasonic TX32DT4 IDTV, which I am very pleased with. I'm using it with a loft-mounted wideband aerial, and I get strong signals on all channels (signal strength 9). I have noticed one bit of strange behaviour. When you change channels on the TV, the programme guide...

I have mastered Tetris on Freeview channel 53. If I get the code does it last forever, or only one day? -- MESSAGE ENDS. John Porcella

Hi, Can anyone tell me if the Hauppauge PVR250 TV card outputs audio via the PCI bus or through a cable from back to soundcard line-in? Thanks.

I've had enough of forever having to spend big money on TV/Audio/Video equipment. Rather than go for an expensive DVDR/HDD recorder, I'm looking at building a dedicated PC to live under the TV to handle all my TV watching, recording, DVD and audio needs. I've found what looks like the best tuner...

I'd be interested to know this as well as I plan to buy a Nebula for my M10000. I wasn't aware that it was slow at MPEG2 decoding at the moment, though :/ Do you find that your M10000 works well as a PVR come HTPC. Is DVD playback ok? Is TV-Out picture any good? Any thoughts would be great.

Why is the channel selection on Freeview crap ? Does anyone actually watch , Bid-up , Sky sport news , Travel shop , FTN , etc etc ? Is the fact that we have such dire and repetitive (i.e . 2 pop music , 2 travel , 2 news 2 shop ) channels mean that SKY has sewn up all the reasonable alternatives...

I would like to be able to receive freeview and have done some background research. First off the postcode checker says "not available" however if I go to: http://www.wolfbane.com/cgi-bin/tvd.exe?DX=L&OS=TQ839875 It shows several transmitters close by. The closest is Bluebell Hill which according...

No support for subtitles. Keep on asking for it! ----------------------------- New in the version 2.16 ----------------------------- Improvements: - Record of MPEG2 - shown time for record and sleeptimer

Don't know if this is a bug in the Thomson software but I cannot get my grandparent's FreeView Thomson Freeview box running on software version 2.3 to 'Press Red' or 'Text' when on BBC channels if the Subtitles are switched on. Although I can get to the text options using channel 51, you cannot...
