Recording "Other Channels"
 
Hi,
I am wanting to setup a recording on a regional news bulletin - ITV
Central - and I live in the ITV Yorkshire region.

I have added the channel as an "other" channel and can view it, but
obviously there is no advanced epg info - just the current programme.

Is there any way I can go to work and get my Sky+ box to record the bit I
want or do I have to revert to good old VHS?

Cheers

Al

yes you can do a manual record in services i think its is, just like a video
you can set the time from when to start to when to finish and what channel

good luck

No, Sky+ cannot record anything from the 'Other Channels' menu, manual
recordings are indeed possible, but only from stations on the EPG.

It's back to the VHS I'm afraid
