We do both kinda like the same things, 24, lost etc... BUT the Rugby world cup is coming soon and I don't want t be watching rugby day and night so he can + it

Urchin - you will LOVE it - it's brilliant.

One of the best things is that you can set something up to record a series - so if you forget it's on, then bingo, it's recorded. I love it.

Make OH pay for it though .

Has anyone else bought a recorder thingby to record the movies etc onto - we're running out of space on our Sky+ 'cos we've got so many movies and we had an idea about buying a box thing and recording them onto DVDs but not sure how this works or how much it costs? Anyone?

[Urchin]

He's here

Valentine I *think* you can just use the scart and somehow fix it up to your pc/laptop and burn the disc that way. I'll be looking into that more later

How many hours can you get on a Sky box anyway?

 

[emma28]

Urchin, we have a hard drive for our television and then you can just transfer whatever onto that and burn it off. They're just linked with a scart lead. We had it before we got Sky+ as it kind of does the same but they work great together. We've taped whole series' of Peppa Pig and Meteor the Monster truck onto DVD pretty much before they were in the shops. Hour's of toddler bliss
Enjoy Sky+, bet you're not on here much for a while!

Yay lucky you!

We don't have sky+ but we have one of those hard drive wotsits and it's great to rewind back to watch what I've missed putting Brody to bed!

 

[Urchin]

Yay all done!

Wahoo, you will LOVE it Urchin, we got it after I stayed at a friends who had it, and I dont know how we ever lived without it!!!!

Just discovered after 18 months, you can programme your Sky remote to alter the volume on your TV-we have been using 2 remote controls We can now operate the TV on the Sky remote-instructions are in the manual. You follow dirsections, and enter the code they give for the make of your TV and bingo, it works!! No more rumaging for the volume control

 

[Urchin]

Yeah all sky remote can do that

I have been trying to show Mason how it all works but he's finding it qute hard so he's just watching a Top Gear I recorded for him earlier

 

[Rubys mummy]

Yeah all sky remote can do that

I am blonde. You have to make allowances for me

 

[Emmylou]

I wish I had that....

BUT
Freeview are doing them boxes now where u can pause an all that for a 1 off fee so i suspect i'll get one of them

Becks...thats what we have, FIL bought it so I'm not sure exactly how much it was as it was a gift, but I think it was around £100 but that was 18mths ago so prob cheaper now.

I actually don't know how we lived without it.....downside is you want to rewind& pause everything....like the radio I + everything around the bedtime routine & watch it next morning as I hate daytime TV it drives me crackers.

 

[Dee1985]

Have you already got plus? Or is that 49 for a new plus box?

 

[lozzi]

thats for a sky plus box and installation at my newb house, so i was gonna pay 40 for reloaction anyway, so technically its gonna cost me £9 for sky plus.. no monthly fee etc...

im normally just on the normal sky box

 

[Urchin]

Cool, we love it already
