Series Link
Mon, 08 Jun 2009 09:45:13 GMT
With the old Sky+ software, if I had set a Series Link, after recording a
particular episode, the link automatically entered itself in the planner to
the next scheduled episode date, so I could delete the watched episodes, yet
still record the future ones.
With the new software, and the "stacking" system, if ...

New cards and quality
Sat, 06 Jun 2009 21:12:37 +0100
I have sky HD and Sky+, so two cards.
I have just been on holiday and the new cards were waiting for me when I got
back.
On both boxes playback is not as good as it was - just odd little "stutters"
anyone else seen similar?
Ta,
Paul.

How easy is it?
Thu, 4 Jun 2009 18:14:16 +0100
To remove an lnb from a dish and replce it with a quad lnb to get sky+
without any sat finder meter?
Can you just do a straight replace or is a meter needed? I know I can check
the signal strength on the menu screen.
Anything else I would need to set up?
Thanks
