On a similar note: Sky. Love it to bits, but was dismayed to find that I can't record onto VHS any channel other than the one that's showing.
Mayday! Mayday!
And, No, I do not have Sky+.Comment

If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.Comment

Not sure how modern your telly is but on mine I set the scheduler and leave the telly on standby. At the appointed time the freeview box comes on, but not the telly.Originally posted by Platypus View PostAnd even if (as someone suggested) the signal is sent out of the telly via scart, the telly would have to be switched on and the correct channel selected for the PVR to be able to record it.

I thought about recording onto VHS from Sky too the other day, but then I remembered that it's not 1983 anymore.Originally posted by Bob Dalek View PostOn a similar note: Sky.

Yes. I am a miser and didn't want to chuck the video machine in the bin. Stupid of me, as that's its short-term destiny, anyway!Originally posted by VectraMan View PostI thought about recording onto VHS from Sky too the other day, but then I remembered that it's not 1983 anymore.Comment

Good answer!Originally posted by TheFaQQer View PostAs with 43% of my posts, I have no idea what I'm talking about, so possibly right or wrong.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment

My wife bought me a VCR about 8 years ago. It cost a bit in terms of VCR's as it could play US tapes - I used to do a bit of work out there. It never once got used because I got a DVD player shortly after. We never even set the clock on it either so it had no use whatsoever! All it did was sit under our telly and consume power until I binned it.Originally posted by Bob Dalek View PostYes. I am a miser and didn't want to chuck the video machine in the bin.

Or just get an all in one..."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."
